Introduction:
Coding is now becoming popular almost for everyone. Many people saw an ad wherein kids are learning coding. Since then, people want their kids to learn to code as well. Coding is not a new language. It is an old technology language. Coding is nothing but computer programming or developing.
Coding has made our life beautiful. One of the finest examples which I can mention when you open your smartphone or laptop. The moment you open it up, then you enter the commands into it and whatever you give instructions it gets opens it up. This is the power of coding.
Coding is now not only famous at the senior level but also at the entry-level, especially for kids. The basic purpose which we as a parent need to ask ourselves is why we need to teach coding to our kids? What is the main object? How much time can they devote daily to learning to code? In this blog, I will try to answer these questions
Things to keep in mind

Thinking Ability
Coding not only solves their questions but also helps the kids to look beyond the solution and think about it in a different way. They can explore the things, this is how the things work? There are solutions available in solving any problem but when the solution does not work, then they use another solution and if that does not work, then they use another solution. They keep on doing it until they reach a conclusion.

We all love to do creativity. Whether in our social life or in office life, we all love to do it. Similarly, kids also love creativity as well. Kids will prefer to do experiments and when they are successful then they motivate themselves. Not only this but it will also help them to get motivation regarding the experiment which they have done. With the help of coding, kids can develop their games and can share them with their friends which will boost their morale.
