Kids use algorithms long before they start coding—most of them just don’t know it yet!
An algorithm is simply a step-by-step instruction for completing a task, and children follow them every day.

Think about it:
• Brushing their teeth (wet toothbrush → add paste → brush → rinse).
• Getting ready for school (wake up → bath → breakfast → pack bag).
• Playing games that require rules and sequences.

When kids learn coding early, these everyday routines suddenly become powerful learning tools. They start seeing patterns, creating logical steps, and organizing their thoughts with clarity.

Teaching them to code doesn’t just teach computer skills—it strengthens how they think, plan, and solve problems in real life.
