Let BlueStacks turn your PC, Mac, or laptop into the perfect home for ScratchJr, a fun Education app from Scratch Foundation.
About the App
ScratchJr makes coding feel like play for young kids. With simple, colorful blocks, children 5 and up can build their own mini-games and interactive stories—then watch their characters move, dance, and speak. Created by Scratch Foundation, this Education app gives early learners a friendly space to tinker, imagine, and create.
App Features
- Tap-and-snap coding: Kids drag picture blocks together to control what happens on screen—think moving, turning, appearing, and reacting—without any text-based code.
- Create your own characters: Use the built-in paint editor to draw from scratch or tweak existing characters with new colors, shapes, and details.
- Add voice and photos: Record narration and sound effects, or drop in photos to make projects personal and extra fun.
- Build interactive stories: Arrange scenes, switch backgrounds, and set up simple actions so characters can talk, move, and respond as the story unfolds.
- Designed for early learners: Big buttons, clear icons, and a clean layout keep things approachable for kids who are just starting to explore technology.
- Learn by making: As children experiment, they practice sequencing, problem-solving, and early math and language skills—without feeling like they’re doing “homework.”
- Inspired by Scratch: Based on the well-loved Scratch project, reimagined with an interface and tools that make sense for younger creators.
- Made for tablets: Works best on tablets that are 7 inches or larger. Prefer using a computer? You can run it on your PC or Mac with BlueStacks for a bigger canvas.
BlueStacks brings your apps to life on a bigger screen—seamless and straightforward.
