It is an excellent way to introduce concepts of computer science to young children in a fun way. The Canterbury Uni team do an incredible job teaching Computer Science 4 Primary Schools. As a DTTA member I was privileged to go down in 2017 to learn how to deliver this in Wellington. It's on of the ideas I have been discussing with the local council about develop resource kit in a box ideas for primary schools to pick up and run with.

Hey Jacky, give me sometime to find them. There are a lot of great unplugged activities, but there are some real winners to get people started, I need to check through notes. So focused on secondary assessments and marking at the moment, planning NCEA level 1 workshop for DTTA on Saturday and juggling busy life with newborn . . . . .
I'll be in touch ;)
