About Blockly Bird
Blockly Bird teaches one of programming's biggest ideas — the if/else decision — by asking kids to program a bird: fly toward the worm when you don't have it, then bring it home to the nest. Conditions and angles, disguised as bird logic.
How to play Blockly Bird
Build the bird's brain from condition blocks: "if no worm, head toward the worm; else head toward the nest." Set headings in degrees, press Run Program, and watch your logic fly.
