Jeroo is a computer game that is designed to teach kids about coding and programming. In the game, you get to play as a cute little kangaroo named Jeroo, who has to navigate through a series of challenges by following a set of instructions.
Think of Jeroo as a chef who needs to follow a recipe to make a cake. In the game, you have to give Jeroo specific instructions or commands to move, turn, and pick up objects, just like you would give the chef specific instructions to mix ingredients, stir, and bake.
For example, you might tell Jeroo to hop forward, turn left, pick up a flower, and hop back to the starting point. Jeroo will do exactly what you tell her to do, but if you make a mistake in your instructions, Jeroo might get stuck or make a wrong move.
The idea behind Jeroo is to help kids learn about programming concepts like loops, conditionals, and functions, in a fun and interactive way. By playing the game, kids can learn how to think logically, solve problems, and work on their problem-solving skills.
Jeroo is a great tool for parents or teachers who want to introduce kids to coding, and it is available for free online. The game is designed for kids ages 9 to 14 and, with some help from an adult, even younger children can participate.
