The Week Junior Science+Nature magazine has joined forces with the UK educational charity, Raspberry Pi Foundation.
Using Scratch and other programming languages, our Coding Club is a space for young people to learn and develop their skills, from building games to designing animations.
Help your children discover the power of computing and digital technologies, and realise their full potential with our free projects below.
Plus you can discover more step by step coding projects from the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
