No Prerequisites. Just a Tablet.
Perfect for complete beginners. Your child just needs to be curious and ready to have fun. No reading is needed: we use picture blocks and audio guidance. Classes run on an iPad or Android tablet; a laptop won't work for this age group.

How the Age 5-6 Learning Path Works
Code
ScratchJr Levels 1 and 2: from making characters move to building multi-scene quest games.
Explore
AI Explorers with a child-safe AI tool, RoboPlay with robots on the tablet (no kit needed), and Creative Tech Lab: art, voice and stop-motion.
Graduate
Logic Games, then a 2-class Graduation Project. Next step: Sprite Lab game design.
About 9 months at 2 classes a week, or about 18 months at 1 class a week.
How Skills Grow Over Time
By the end of this pathway, children naturally progress from:
Throughout the journey, students develop:

What Your Child Needs
Everything is simple to set up at home. Here is what your child uses in class.
A Tablet
An iPad or Android tablet. Young children drag and tap with their fingers, so a laptop won't work for KG-1.
No Kit Needed
RoboPlay runs on the tablet, just like ScratchJr, so there is no robot kit to buy for KG-1.
Safe, Sandboxed AI
AI Explorers uses iCodejr's own child-safe AI tool, guided by the instructor in every class. Your child never needs an account on a public AI app.
Invest in Your Child's Future
Six modules taken in order, plus a graduation project. Every module ends with a project your child presents and its own certificate.
Age 5-6 Program FAQs
Is this too much screen time?
Our 40-minute live classes are interactive, not passive. Children create, solve problems and talk with their instructor the whole time. We recommend 1–2 classes a week, balanced with other activities.
Does my child need to read?
No. KG-1 is designed for pre-readers. ScratchJr uses picture blocks, and the instructor guides every step out loud.
Do we need a robotics kit?
No. In KG-1, RoboPlay runs on the tablet, so there is no robot kit to buy.
Can my child join mid-year?
Absolutely. Every class is 1-on-1, so we start wherever your child is and personalise the path for them.
What device do we need?
An iPad or Android tablet. Children drag and tap with their fingers, so a laptop won’t work for this age group.
Is the AI safe for a 5-year-old?
Yes. AI Explorers uses iCodejr’s own sandboxed, child-safe AI tool, guided by the instructor in every class. Your child never needs an account on a public AI app.
How do the credit packages work?
Each live class uses 1 credit, and credits work across every iCodejr program. The full KG-1 path is 72 classes; the Colonel package (96 credits) covers it plus the Sprite Lab next step.
Which language are classes taught in?
English or Arabic. Choose when you book.
Do you offer scholarships?
Our 40-minute live classes are interactive, not passive. Children create, solve problems and talk with their instructor the whole time. We recommend 1–2 classes a week, balanced with other activities.
