desertcart.com: Teach Your Kids to Code: A Parent-Friendly Guide to Python Programming: 9781593276140: Payne, Bryson: Books

Review: Misleading title! - It should be called "Teach EVERYONE to code" - This book is very well structured, written and visually appealed. It is evident that Dr. Payne knows this business and how to communicate complex ideas and concepts in simple language. This book is called "Teach your kids to code" but I think that is misleading. It should be called "Teach everyone to code". I am a grown-up, in age not in spirit, and I learned the basics of Python from this book and from his outstanding Udemy course with the same name. It is recommended for kids ages 9+ (and their parents) and I subscribe this recommendation. It will be difficult for younger kids to follow this book and perform the projects. Dr. Payne says in his TED talk that "Coding is not the goal, coding is the gateway". This book can be your and your child gateway to be a problem solver through a coder mindset! I am looking forward to reading more books from Dr. Payne and to learn more about coding!
Review: it should make for a nice learning language for the kids based on what I've ... - Bought this book for several reasons. First, I've been meaning to add Python to my language arsenal for a while now. Second, it should make for a nice learning language for the kids based on what I've read and heard about the language. I've been a computer nerd for over 20 years now. Both my kids have their own PC clones (showing my age with just that comment). All three of our computers are "frankenstien" boxes with used, upgraded, and traded parts. They enjoyed learning about the inner working of the machine hardware. This should be another great adventure learning about software. I chose this book because Mr. Payne was one of my first computer science teachers in college back in 2001. His teaching style adds layers of complexity so that you don't feel overwhelmed and it all just starts to make sense. Thumbing through the book, I can see he's applied that same principle here. I'm looking forward to what the kids think about it. I'll update this review after we've gone through it. I'll probably struggle with keeping this one for the bookshelf or passing it along to my nephews.
