Coding for Kids
Earth Day is a great time to celebrate our amazing planet. Did you know that solar energy is one of the most abundant (and cleanest!) power sources on Earth? From simple solar panels to immense solar concentrators, there are so many ways to harvest and store solar energy. Our Earth Day clicker game lets you collect solar power and use panels, towers, and more to accelerate your energy absorption! Can you use code to re-program the Solar Power Clicker into an ocean cleanup, tree-planting, or composting game?
