Children can use popular visual programming language Scratch to create their own Google Logo and bring it to life. Let the letters dance, change color, or tell a story – all depending on how the kids choose to code them!

Unlike other common coding languages, Scratch is a visual, block-based language that utilizes a drag-and-drop interface rather than a purely textual one. It was specifically designed by MIT for kids and beginners to understand the principles of coding without having to worry about technical details (like syntax).

This makes it one of the best Hour of Code activities to do, seeing as the entry-level is so low and the concept is fairly easy to grasp.
