Python vs Scratch vs web is the booking question after “should my kid code.” Use the tree, then open the syllabus — not a random Udemy pile.
Decision tree
- Grade 3–5 or weak typing → Scratch
- Loves games and can type → Python with AI
- Wants something family can open in Chrome → Web Development
- Wants creative AI art/stories first → AI in Everyday Life
- Still unsure → $3 trial
