Code Your Own Games!: 20 Games to Create with Scratch Review: Great introduction to programming. - I bought this book for my 8-year-old. At first I thought I was going to have to go through the book with him, but honestly he picked it all up on his own and has gone back to it multiple times to build the new games. It didn't take him long to build upon what he learned in the book and he started creating his own games. I think the fact that it's game oriented really helps the kids get interested. As a father who is in the software engineering profession this has been a wonderful way to bond with my child and spawn some interest in computer science for him. Review: Great way to introduce kids to STEM - I use this with grandchildren, ages 5, 8 & 12 as a base to let them design their own applications. While the 5 yo is barely reading, she took immediately to the background design feature and, I would work with her, using snipers from the code projects, to animate simple games. The 8 & 12 yo are working more on their own. This is well supported by the book where projects are broken up into 5 increasing levels of difficulty. This is the most requested activity when they come over and I was able to configure old laptops to run a portable version of Scratch fro a jump drive so they all could work simultaneously and never require internet or hard drive access. The book was so good, I purchased a second one for them to work with at home. A note of caution: different versions of Scratch use slightly different icons that may require some adaption from the version the book uses as its basis. I"ve preworked exercises to minimize this issue. Other than that, all projects appear to work and provide a fun way to introduce programming at different levels. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #585,571 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #40 in Children's Computer Software Books #110 in Children's Programming Books | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (178) | | Dimensions | 8 x 0.5 x 9.75 inches | | Edition | Revised | | Grade level | 1 - 6 | | ISBN-10 | 1454943130 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1454943136 | | Item Weight | 1.1 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 80 pages | | Publication date | November 10, 2020 | | Publisher | Union Square Kids | | Reading age | 6 - 11 years | ## Images ![Code Your Own Games!: 20 Games to Create with Scratch - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71tA+BfwNCL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great introduction to programming. *by N***K on March 13, 2025* I bought this book for my 8-year-old.

Tre trick is getting the right code to copy. This book is perfect for that; the projects are very simple yet fun and appealing, and new concepts are introduced gradually. We got a different scratch book from the library and it sat untouched for a few months. After we bought this book my kid made five games from it in the first week. 10/10, no notes, if you're only gonna get one scratch book, get this one. ## Frequently Bought Together - Code Your Own Games!: 20 Games to Create with Scratch - Coding for Kids: Python: Learn to Code with 50 Awesome Games and Activities - Coding for Minecrafters: Unofficial Adventures for Kids Learning Computer Code --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/202625169-code-your-own-games-20-games-to-create-with-scratch](https://www.desertcart.be/products/202625169-code-your-own-games-20-games-to-create-with-scratch) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
