Previously it was thought that to teach a preschooler to read and write - is the top skill vospitatelskogo parents. Today, a child's skills list would be nice to add and programming. Make it as simple as possible will help the game The Foos.
Programmers - one of the most prestigious professions of our time. They are always in demand in the labor market, and even in a crisis they are willing to pay a lot. Today, many dream to master this wonderful profession, but not all turns out.
It is therefore better to start literally from young nails. According to the company CodeSpark, The Foos game developers programming can teach a child is already 4 years old. Of course, we are not talking about shtudirovanie C ++ or JavaScript. Everything is much simpler. The game helps to develop a child's logical thinking that the programmer is not less important than any other skills.
Successfully play in The Foos are even those children who are not yet able to read. In the game there are no words, and all the gameplay is based on the intuitive actions. The game is divided into small levels, each of which has a certain number of items. To pass you must collect all of these items, summing them character. The catch is that you can not directly control it. This is done with the help of pictograms of actions that need to build in a certain sequence.
For example, at level two is the subject. One of them is located on the box, the other - in front of him. To sum up the character, we are building a chain of the icons of motion and jump. Gradually to pass the level you need to use a greater variety of activities. The trick is to collect all the items in one turn, that is, to build a perfect chain.
Thus, the child programs the character, making simple commands. In fact, he is learning to write a primitive code and understand the relationship of their actions with the end result. Of course, after passing The Foos your child will not immediately cool coder, but is likely to learn to think like a programmer. Oh, and for computer science lessons at school will feel more comfortable.
In The Foos play for free at PC or download the application from the App Store or Google Play.
