Scratch is a simple programming language, designed for children, where you can create interactive stories, games, and animations.

With Scratch, you can programme your very own interactive stories, games, and animations and then share your creations with other children in the online community. Scratch provides young people with essential skills encouraging them to think creatively, reason systematically and work with others.
