Kids as creators: making games, businesses and code

Children who make things learn differently from children who only watch. Planning a game, pricing a sticker pack or putting together a video teaches planning, patience and what it takes for other people to enjoy something. It also turns screen time into something with a point.

The Creator Jobs world in Bip has the same idea: kids plan, price and pitch like a game designer or a market stall owner, with AI as a helper and a note for the grown-up on every project.

Start with games

Games are where many kids already spend their time, so they are the easiest way in. How to make a game on Roblox is a step-by-step for beginners, and game design for kids shows how to plan a first game on paper before touching a computer.

Think like a business

Selling something small, safely and with a grown-up, teaches costs, prices and profit. See business ideas for kids.

Learn to code

When your child is ready to write code, coding for kids: where to start compares the usual starting points by age.

Your role

You do not need to be an expert. Ask what they are making, play their game and ask what they would change. The point is that they are the author.
