Scratch Workshop

In this hands-on Scratch workshop, participants will design and build their own interactive mini-game or story world. Using simple blocks, characters, sounds and animations, they will learn how to make things move, react and come alive on screen.

The workshop starts with a short guided introduction where everyone creates a basic interactive scene together. After that, participants are free to customize and expand their project: adding characters, inventing challenges, creating stories, or designing playful interactions. Creativity is central there is no “right” result.

The workshop is suitable for beginners as well as participants with some Scratch experience. Younger participants can focus on simple interactions and animations, while older or more experienced ones can experiment with variables, scoring systems or more complex logic.

By the end of the session, everyone will have a working Scratch project they can continue at home. The goal is to make coding feel fun, accessible and empowering, and to show that programming is a creative tool for everyone.

Unless stated otherwise, FOSDEM Junior workshops are intended for children aged 7 to 17. Don't forget to bring your own laptop.
