ScratchJr is an interactive app for preschool children that teaches them the basics of programming, proving that it is not boring and difficult at all. The tool is based on the Logo language created back in 1967, the successor of which is the Scratch language, which, unlike its predecessor, received an improved functional and graphic part. Of course, it will be difficult for children to learn how to work with the instrument on their own, therefore, at first, the help of one of the adults is desirable.
It is recommended to use the application on tablets since the screens of smartphones are too small, because a small programmer will have to interact with many miniature interactive elements. With all the apparent complexity, you can master ScratchJr in one day, since the main elements in the application interface are only a few sections, each of which is responsible for a specific function - actions, sounds, display, and so on. It is necessary to build a kind of chain of available scenarios, and it can be quite long, depending on the duration of the scene being created.
The entire control system in ScratchJr consists of taps and swipes, with the help of which specified scripts are moved and run, combining them into a single workable structure. At any stage, you can use the preview to make the appropriate adjustments along the way. Make adorable characters run, jump, dance, use the surrounding objects. Once completed and saved, all interactive scenes are transferred to a "story", from where they can be shared with other users of this interactive platform.
