Description
Easy and fun coding – for everyone.
Tinkerblocks is a coding app for girls and boys aged six and up – a language free digital toy! Create your individual "Magic Eight Project", invent your "Fun Alarm System" – bring your ideas to life!
With Tinkerblocks children get into coding by a simple programming language they can touch. Coding is the language of today’s technology, with Tinkerblocks you will learn the concept of coding.
Move from consumer to become an inventor! Tinkerblocks helps you in the easiest possible way: If you know how to code you can change the world!
We designed a tangible and easy to follow approach to coding that lets anyone create great projects powered by your devices' sensors and advanced possibilities and your imagination. It’s perfect for students to quickly start out – no coding knowledge required!
The following concepts, to understand code are featured within the app:
Commands, Parameters, Functions, Loops, Conditions, Types, how to fix Bugs and FUN! :)
Share your creation with a friend – you can easily sent your scripts to others and they can play, modify and resent the projects.
Tinkerblocks fosters student learning in key areas like Social- Emotional, Creative Thinking, STEM, and Common Core:
Children learn computational thinking skills through play.
Tinkerblocks is based on ideas and publications by the MIT and the University of Tokyo – so the foundation is based on research and knowledge on how programming basics can be understood in a fast and easy way.

Ratings and Reviews
Editors’ Notes
With Tinkerblocks, coding isn’t just for big kids anymore. The simple interface lets little programmers combine graphical widgets to build fun, surprisingly sophisticated mini-apps that unleash their imaginations and teach coding fundamentals. We especially love how kids can access the camera, accelerometer and other features of their devices to instantly see the results of their work.
Schön aber leider unvollständig
Meine 7jährige liebt es momentan noch. Das Prinzip ist rasch zu verstehen und ordentlich umgesetzt, sowohl kinder- als auch touchscreenfreundlich, in den Bausteinen stecken außerdem ein paar schöne Ideen.
Bloß: die Möglichkeiten sind leider deutlich beschränkt. Vor allem lassen sich momentan nur sehr einfache lineare Abläufe damit realisieren. Um das auch noch begrenzt auf so viele Schritte wie in die Spalte auf dem Bildschirm passen (Scrollen: Fehlanzeige – und das können _alle_ Kinder, dich ich jemals mit einem Tablet beobachtet habe). Von wegen "Schleifen, Variablen, …" – alles womit sich etwas weiterführende Konzepte realisieren und begreifen ließen fehlt bisher. Bitte nachliefern, dann erhöhe ich gern auf 5 Sterne.
Sehr schön
Eine sehr tolle app um lustige Automaten zu programmieren. Unsere Kinder haben sich sofort darin vergraben. Am Anfang bisschen schwer reinzukommen, aber es lohnt sich!
