As you guys already know, I’m a huge fan of the ‘for dummies’ series. I featured their amazing Acoustic Guitar Kit on the guide and I have a few more goodies from them. We’re even going to do a giveaway.
Minecraft is such an addicting game. I know because my son plays it all the time. He’s built an entire world with that game and frankly, I’m a bit jealous that he’s so good at it. I want him to teach me how to play it and build but, he doesn’t have the time.
Well, now with Minecraft for Dummies, I can teach myself at my pace. This book teaches you everything you need to know step by step. You’ll learn how to:
- Use blocks to build anything you can imagine
- Protect what you’ve built from monsters
- Survive, mine, and go on adventures in the Minecraft world
- Customize your experience
Minecraft is a great game that can be enjoy by children and adults and Minecraft for Dummies is the perfect book to help you get started. And if you know the basics but long to become a mad scientist or venture into Hardcore mode, you’ll find out how to do that too.
Coding For Kids For Dummies – available @ amazon.com — $19.61
Coding is something that I’m pretty sure will be required learning in the near future so, it makes sense to give a child a jumpstart with Coding For Kids For Dummies. I know this book is specifically intended for kids but, I’ve learned so much already.
Coding For Kids For Dummies breaks coding into a series of small projects, each designed to teach elementary-to-middle-school-aged students a core concept to build a game, application, or other tool.
In this hands-on, friendly guide readers will get access to a leading coding tool that has been designed specifically for kids, showing them how to create the projects provided in the book as well as how to implement them into their own creative work.
This makes a great gift that can become a family project with you learning along with your child.
