Robot Train needs your child's help to deliver goodies to a Surprise Birthday Party! They'll need to use computer code to guide Robot Train and to help him get through unexpected obstacles. Computer coding is all about telling a computer (or robot train!) what to do in a way that the computer will understand. This book is a delightful way to expose children to computer code for the first time. Computational thinking, the foundation of coding, can be developed at a young age, but there are few resources to help parents or teachers. This book is an old fashioned picture book with a twist- a physical book that engages the kid reader and encourages them to interact with the book, tapping and choosing from different options, all while teaching coding fundamentals like sequence, logic, and conditionals. The book include several activity pages at the end where kids can review the concepts with their parents.
