“Ballyland Code 2: Give Rotor” is a fun new game that teaches children, including those who are blind or visually impaired, basic coding concepts and skills that will be applicable to any programming language. In Coding Challenge 2 you need to code Wheelie to move to Ballicopter in the digital game grid, and to give him a new rotor so that he can fly again. In each of the three levels, the target and obstacles are in a different spot in the game grid, making ‘mental mapping’ and coding the shortest code for this Challenge slightly more difficult than the one in Ballyland Code 1: Say Hello. Visit the Sonokids website for optional 3D printable Ballyland learning tools for this app, and for the other fun educational Ballyland apps that help build preparatory iPad/gesture skills.
