Author of buildwithyourkid.com and raisingpixels.dev. 12yr dev, eng director → SAHM. $11k hackathon wins. Teaching toddler to read and make games with AI.
Every "teach your kids to code" resource assumes your kid can read.
Mine's 3. So I wrote a computational thinking curriculum for pre- and early readers. Unplugged activities, real CS concepts. 12 weeks of building real things together!
I've noticed that the price of fun with a kid is super cheap. Looking at rocks is fun. Paper towel rolls are fun. Making up silly games with no props at all is fun.
Fun without a kid was: traveling, eating out, shopping, etc... way more costly
Pretty sure I'm saving money on
ever since our kid was little, i've been experimenting with ways to start mapping time to space
a paper planner in particular creates an interesting surface area
the child can start to visualize streaks
he can see that things add up
We brought 2yo along to some appointments recently and got constant comments along the lines of "he's so well behaved!" or "he's so polite!"
Like we just don't let our kid run wild? And model good behavior? It's work but not impossible!
Poke replaced my todo list with actually doing things
Shoot it a quick text and it researches, writes, and shops for me while I homeschool my son
Feels so natural to use! @interaction really cooked
Since everyone is asking how I put Poke @interaction on my Home Screen:
Open Shortcuts → Tap + → Search for "Messages" → Choose Open Conversation → Select your conversation with Poke → Tap the Share icon → Choose Add to Home Screen
