If you child is really enjoying these coding projects, I can recommend downloading Scratch as an extension task.

Scratch is a little more in-depth than the activities I have posted, child friendly still but I always find you have to have real enthusiasm and determination to be successful. I’d love to know if anyone wants to try this. Message me if you do.
As a creative task today, can you find out about bee dances. Bees indicate where pollen/nectar can be found by wiggling their bottoms to show their friends.
