Cato's Hike vs EduKids Elementary School

A little programmer odyssey! "Who says that computer programming should only be left to the adults?... although Cato’s Hike is geared towards children, it can definitely unlock the little programmer in all of us." -- AppAdvice Cato is a little boy who just like every little boy likes to go out and play. One fine day Cato was playing outside when a portal to another world opened up in front of him; a portal to another world! Cato stepped through and discovered that this world unlike his own didn't follow the same rules. Every time he tried to take a step or an action he'd find himself stuck in place. Stuck that is until he finally discovered the rules in this universe: by writing a program for himself he would be able to overcome all obstacles and learn something new along the way! Features: * Simple programming interface using beautiful cards with pictures * A visual manual to help guide parents and more interested users * Loops, branches and if/else, goto labels, looking and chaining looks to look ahead, goto's, and simple memory using colored flags are the main tools used to introduce programming * 60 levels and 12 tutorials (always working to add more!) * Powerful map editor so you can create your own maps and puzzles and share with friends * Preview your maps directly in the map editor to save time and test out your maps more quickly! * Saves program progress so you can pick up at any time and iteratively develop * Email your puzzle solutions to share your genius with others * Beautiful artwork and amusing sound effects and music * Puzzles ranging from easy to hard to teach different programming concepts without trying to force them * Emailed maps include gorgeous screenshot of what you are sending so your friends know what to expect * Cato's Hike teaches children (ages 5+) the essentials of programming and how to think about solving complex problems * The challenges in there are solvable easily by children of all ages but more nuanced and complex solutions should challenge teenagers and parents alike! * Just a fun puzzle game :) Upcoming features: * MORE LEVELS! * Hints on harder levels * Possibly more tutorial levels if enough ask for it * Possible cloud-sync Essentially, 'Cato’s Hike' is a universal game for the iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch to teach kids and young children basic programming skills. The younger ones will obviously enjoy solving levels using simpler coding techniques but the hope is the older ones will pick up more advanced concepts like loops and branching as well as even more advanced concepts like a basic stack or memory! There is enough in here to keep everyone from children to parents engaged! More challenges are upcoming however so stay tuned! As with all my projects I take this one very seriously and I hope you enjoy. I intend to continue improving Cato's Hike as much as possible and incorporate your feedback and suggestions as well as try to make it more intuitive and better able to convey the concepts it is setting out to teach. If you have any questions, suggestions, ideas, or bugs you'd like to report please don't hesitate to reach out to me directly at: hesham.wahba@gmail.com

'EduKids: Elementary school at home' goal is to provide you, parents, with a simple, intuitive and complete tool to make your children work in a good mood. It covers Grades 1 to 5 (going through grade 2, 3 and 4 of course). Besides you will be able to track their progress. All the 201 exercises are in the form of a quiz, with from 2 to 6 answers offered to each question. To accommodate the little ones, the questions (and answers) are read and can be repeated. To motivate children to work (well), we set up a system of stars to win: the more the children give correct answers, the more stars they earn. These stars unlock stickers and backgrounds, the goal is to collect them all !!! Every day, the virtual teacher gives 4 exercises to your child. These exercises are not chosen at random! Indeed, the teacher takes into account the topics that you have selected for your child so that he works on what he needs the most. The exercise program is adapted to the level of each child and is therefore personalized. Advanced mode / Simple mode We have created 2 user interfaces for children. The advanced mode allows the older ones to navigate in all the sections of the application. The simple mode is intended for the youngest, who will be guided step by step by their virtual teacher: they can only do what the teacher tells them to do, and therefore will not be able to get lost in the application. In both cases, the parent mode remains accessible and allows you to assign exercises to your children and to follow their progress easily. The parents area The 'parents area' allows you to manage the profiles of the children who use the application. (note for the adults: do not give your code !!!) In this part of the application you can: - create as many child profiles as you want - assign homework to your children - follow the evolution of their results - delete profiles Thanks to the 'homework assignment' part you can assign specific exercises to your children so that they work on a particular point of the program. Ready-made homework is also available, these homework takes place over several days (4 exercises per day to do) and makes the children work on specific points or tackle various subjects to revise during the holidays for example. When you select a class for a child, you are asked to choose 3 topics on which you want your child to progress. Thus, each day the teacher will assign 4 exercises to your children based on the topics selected to make them work effectively. The trophies When a child completes an exercise without making a mistake, he wins a trophy for that exercise. 3 trophies are available per exercise. The goal is to collect all the trophies! Explanation of the different game modes: Parents' exercises The 'parents' exercises' are the exercises that you have assigned to your child. These are the ones that bring in the most stars. Daily exercises The 'Daily exercises' are the exercises assigned by your child's virtual teacher. It is based on the 3 topics that you have selected to assign the most relevant exercises to your children. Self-selected exercises The 'Self-selected exercises' are the exercises that your child has chosen by himself. Every day, the first 4 ones give him stars. He can then continue to do so, but will no longer earn stars. Challenge The 'challenge' mode is unlocked when your child has finished all the parents' exercises, the exercises of the day and has done 4 free exercises. This mode earns a lot of stars but is quite difficult: you have to answer 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 questions in a row without making a mistake !!! This mode is blocked every day until the child has finished his mandatory exercises. This is the mode that earns the most stars !!!
