Hopscotch is programming designed for everyone. Kids can use simple, intuitive building blocks to create games, animations and apps.

Program your characters to move, draw, and collide with each other, and use shaking, tilting, or even shouting at the iPad to control them.

This version of Hopscotch is made especially for schools. Teachers can create private groups allowing students to easily share and play each others projects. All paid characters are unlocked and there are no in-app purchases.

Why learn to code? Computer Science is among the highest paid college degrees and programming jobs are growing at 2x the national average. By the year 2020, there will be a projected 1.4 million computer jobs but only 400,000 CS students. Even if kids don’t grow up to be programmers, the problem solving and critical thinking skills they will obtain playing Hopscotch are necessary for every career path. Hopscotch was inspired by MIT’s Scratch.

Recommended for kids ages 8 to ∞.
