Ready to Start Teaching Kids to Code with Minecraft?

Over the past 10 years, we’ve developed and refined a coding course using Minecraft, shaped by real feedback from both students and teachers. It’s been tested, enjoyed, and proven to work in classrooms and learning groups.

Part 1 of the course takes around 12 hours with a group of 10 students—this includes plenty of time for kids to experiment, play, and explore creatively. The recommended age range is 8 to 14, but what really matters is each child’s readiness and curiosity, not just their age.

The course is divided into chapters, each packed with examples and hands-on activities. There’s no rigid schedule—you can adapt the pacing to your own teaching style and your students’ needs. However, it’s important to follow the chapters in order, as each one builds on the skills and concepts from the previous one.

If you’re a teacher looking for a fresh, engaging way to introduce coding, this course is your perfect starting point. Dive in, guide your students, and watch them light up as they bring their ideas to life in Minecraft!

Is it really free?

We offer all our material for free to parents because we believe that coding literacy is essential for the next generation’s success. In a world where technology shapes nearly every industry, kids need early and engaging exposure to programmin, not just worksheets and tests. Unfortunately, many traditional school programs lack gamification, creative freedom, and real challenge, which leaves curious minds unfulfilled. We’ve built our resources to be different: open-ended, game-based, and designed to spark passion and problem-solving. That’s why there are no paywalls, no ads, and no strings attached—just tools to help kids learn, explore, and thrive.
