Using Scratch to create programs is one of those cases where a kid can learn and have fun at the same time. Sounds like the best possible sort of activity to encourage at school. So what if the programs are games?

Absolutely, creating games is a great learning activity for school. But, if it was blocked, I’m guessing the issue is that most of the kids were just using it as another gaming website—just playing games that had been created by others. But I’ll admit, I only have a general familiarity with Scratch. Perhaps the scenario I’m describing doesn’t make sense/isn’t how Scratch works?
