Learning how to code a game teaches valuable skills for the future.
We live in a technological age and kids need to learn very different skills compared to 40 years ago. Game development is one of the most fun and engaging ways for kids to learn programming languages. It improves their digital literacy and enables them to navigate technology more effectively.
It can also teach skills like project management, with kids having to set goals and work towards a finished product. This is useful in all kinds of areas of life. Another valuable skill is teamwork, which is an essential skill at school, work and in other aspects of life.
