Ask HN: Best apps/website for Kids to learn programming

Posted by lateguy on Wednesday September 28, 2016 @11:54PM
from the ask-hn dept.

My younger brother (9year) who don't know english well. I will say he can just read simple english stories in english, is very curious to learn programming. Any app/websites which I can use to get him started. Much resources look outdated like Alice from MIT.

https://codecombat.com/ is pretty cool. I think it is a fine level for 9 yo.
