Build real projects. Learn how to think like a coder.
Small groups, hands-on projects, and weekly wins for kids ages 10–12. Every session ends with something that runs.
Live demo kids can build: arrays • loops • simple physics • events.
What we’ll build together
A short path from idea → code → on-screen results.
Mini-games
Simple physics, collisions, and scoring. Playable & shareable.
Interactive art
Turn math into visuals—patterns, trails, and generative designs.
Final Project
Each student will choose their own final project to show off during the last session.
Why families choose First Byte
Possibility, projects, and real progress.
Projects, not worksheets
Kids learn faster when they make real things—games, animations, and interactive art they’re proud to show you.
Thinking skills that last
We teach first principles, problem-solving, and debugging—skills that outlast any language or library.
Small groups, big attention
Max 8 students so every kid gets time, feedback, and weekly wins.
