It is often said the best way for a child to learn is through practical experience and vivid things; all the concepts of programming are instituted as a fun and unique game. The children are also expected to play five stages to take hold of the whole concept. Once this is done the kids are expected to in turn create their very own puzzles in an attempt to test themselves. By doing this, the whole concept is fortified deep into the child.
