What makes this course special?
Thanks to the visual editor with built-in code editor your child will be able to jump straight into learning about HTML elements and CSS styling.
HTML and CSS code will be introduced along the way.
Course structure
The first section of the course consist of simple one-part adventures (lessons) dedicated to learning one particular HTML element or CSS property.
The middle section consists of mini projects that have multiple parts (adventures), so that your child will be able to combine HTML elements and CSS properties into more complex solutions such as space bubbles with aliens, a business card and styling a script for a space drama.
The last section is a 16 part project of building a real website for a Super Space Rides business. Your child will use all the skills they learned so far to create the structure, HTML layout and design for a real website.
Take a look at the finished Super Space Rides website here. Your child will learn all the required skills to build this project.
