Excellent! Guides step by step

I bought it today. Will update in a month. So far excellent. Me and My 8 years old son loved it. Also I'll teach my 12 years old with the same book.

Helpful for learning about coding.

I bought this book for my son who was interested in programming. He found it helpful. He did go on to becoming a web and game developer.

A good, but not perfect, book

I bought this for my 8 year old son. Now I do software development myself, so I was able to go through it with him. This book is not bad. I don't have others to compare it with, but there were a few areas I think it could be better. I missed it, or there was no chapter on reading input. I would have expected that to be one of the first things. A program is input + process + output. And this book never touched on input. I think of a good "first game" programming is computer picks a random number and you have to try to guess it. That requires input. The first few chapters are just fancy ways of printing out variables.Second main issue is I feel like it spends a lot of time talking about the pedantics of the various ways to make strings and printing them, and I feel like too much focus was spent there.Third is that I feel like the content is not as "interesting" as it should be for an 8 year old. I feel it got a little too academic and not really relating content to things in the real-world or things 8 year old kids would care about.I would hesitate to give this book to an 8 year old if a grownup was not going to follow along with them or already knows some programming basics. Maybe an older kid will be able to follow it more independently. That said, the actual programming/technical content is well within the grasp of my 8 year old. But I don't think he'd have the patience to follow it independently because of the way it's written.

For my son's christmas present

This is hands down the easiest to learn for kids who have no clue about Python coding. Fun and comes with 50 awesome games and activities.

Python for Kids: A Fun and Easy Guide to Coding

I bought this python book for my 10-year-old son who loves to play with computers. He was very excited to learn how to code and create his own small programs with turtle. The book is very well written and easy to follow for kids. The pages are thick and good quality, and the print is clear and colorful. The illustrations are fun and catchy, and they help to explain the concepts and examples. The code samples are engaging and interactive, and they cover a variety of topics such as variables, loops, functions, graphics, and more. My son enjoyed trying out the code and seeing the results on the screen. He also learned some basic math and logic skills along the way. This is a great python book for kids who want to learn how to code in a fun and simple way. It is a good starter book to introduce kids to python in this age of AI era.

Teach Your Kids Something Useful

Tired of seeing your kids playing Minecraft all day or watching endless Five Nights at Freddies videos on YouTube. I was. Now I sit down with our 9 year old and teach him programming (when I have the time). Does he enjoy it as much as Season 12 of Pokemon Sun & Moon? Probably not. But he does enjoy some of the exercises and is learning the basics of a skill that he'll be able to use in the future. I know some basic programming ideas and have coded HTML and CSS for many years, so I feel comfortable guiding him through the chapters (even though I know nothing about Python). I don't think kids will push through this book on their own, but it gives you a good opportunity to pull them away from their computers and sit them back down in front of their computers -- to do something useful.

Not throughtly explained and randomly jumps around

Read through this with my 7 year old. In the turtle module, the author jumps around from shape to shape. Every time, she draws a new shape, it's a new window while the books just continue using the same window and shapes are drawn over the turtle and other shapes.In the last chapter, when referencing the colors.py file that authors tells you to create and save, it gives a syntax error when typing "from colors import rgb_red, purple, yellow" in a new file.
