CodeMonkey is a leading, fun and intuitive curriculum where students learn to code in real programming languages. Through game and project-based courses, students as young as 7 use real programming languages to solve puzzles and build games and apps. The majority of CodeMonkey’s courses do not require prior coding experience to teach. All courses are designed for school, extra-curricular and home-use.
Ever since CodeMonkey’s founders started to code in the 1990’s, they knew how powerful code literacy can be for a child’s future. CodeMonkey was founded in 2014 based on one of the founder’s successful experiences in teaching young children to code through playful activities. Today, CodeMonkey is made up of a team of experts in technology, gaming and pedagogy in order to deliver fun, educational content to millions of learners around the world.

CodeMonkey covers text-based coding languages of CoffeeScript and Python.
The programming language used in Coding Adventure is called CoffeeScript. It’s a language that compiles to JavaScript, and similarly to JavaScript it is used in the industry primarily for web applications. We chose this language for a few reasons, but mainly because of its friendly syntax, which resembles the way we write in English, compared to other programming languages.
The programming language covered in Coding Chatbots and Banana Tales is Python, a widely used language that has easy syntax. Python is a general-purpose, versatile and popular programming language. Through learning Python, students become one step closer to gaining the confidence they need to enter the real world of programming where they will build websites, apps and games.
Our Home Plans enable 3 types of subscriptions: Individual Plan for 1 child and Family Plan 1-3 children. For 4-5 children, consider purchasing the Home School subscription.
