A Course for Parents & Children Codifyit Coming Soon
Built by an AI & Data Professional · No Coding Experience Needed

Six projects to
build together.

Don't just hear about what your child is learning — make things with them. A game, a chatbot, a computer that recognises hand signs, a chart of family life, Python drawings and a gadget. Free tools, step-by-step instructions, and no experience needed by either of you.

Who this is for

You don't need to know the answers.

Professional programmers spend most of their day stuck. These projects are designed for parents with no coding experience: you read the steps, your child drives, and you get unstuck together.

You'll get a lot from this if you…

  • Want to do something hands-on with your child, not just read about it
  • Have never coded and feel a bit nervous about it
  • Have a child curious about games, gadgets or AI
  • Can find 30–60 minutes at a weekend

This probably isn't for you if…

  • Your child already codes confidently on their own
  • You want a formal programming qualification
  • You don’t have access to a laptop or desktop computer
What's inside

Six projects. One afternoon each.

Every project follows the same shape: what you’ll make, what it teaches, step-by-step instructions with checks, what to do if you get stuck, and ideas to take it further.

01
Before You Start: How to Build Together Free sample

The mindset, the set-up, and the one rule that makes these projects work — plus the robot-sandwich warm-up.

02
Project 1: A Catch Game

Your first game in Scratch: loops, conditions, a score — and something to show off in 45 minutes.

03
Project 2: A Chatbot That Talks Back

A Scratch character that holds a conversation — and a lesson in why sounding clever isn’t understanding.

04
Project 3: Teach a Computer to See

Train a real machine-learning model with your webcam, then find out how bias creeps in.

05
Project 4: Your Family in Numbers

Collect a week of real household data and turn it into an honest chart.

06
Project 5: First Lines of Python

Move from blocks to typed code and draw patterns and spirals with Python’s turtle.

07
Project 6: Make It Physical

Program a micro:bit — or its free on-screen simulator — to build a step counter and a reaction game.

Q

Quant and AI & Data Professional, Tier 1 Investment Bank

I spend my working life writing code and building models — and most of that time is spent stuck, trying things and fixing them. As a parent, I found the best way to learn alongside my children was simply to build small things together. This course is the set of projects I wished I'd had, written for parents who have never coded.

Common questions

FAQ

Do I need any coding experience?

None. The projects are written for parents who have never coded. You read the instructions; your child does the building.

What equipment do we need?

A laptop or desktop computer with a web browser. Every tool used is free. A BBC micro:bit is optional for the final project — there’s a free on-screen simulator.

What ages is it for?

Roughly 7–14. Younger children will need more help with reading the steps; older children can work more independently and try the extension ideas.

How does it relate to the parents’ guide?

“What Is My Child Actually Learning?” explains what children learn about coding, data and AI. This course lets you do it together — each project links back to a module in the guide.
