Python Projects for Kids

By: Jessica Ingrassellino

Overview of this book

Kids are always the most fast-paced and enthusiastic learners, and are naturally willing to build stuff that looks like magic at the end (when it works!). Programming can be one such magic. Being able to write a program that works helps them feel they've really achieved something. Kids today are very tech-savvy and cannot wait to enter the fast-paced digital world. Because Python is one of the most popular languages and has a syntax that is quite simple to understand, even kids are eager to use it as a stepping stone to learning programming languages. This book will cover projects that are simple and fun, and teach kids how to write Python code that works. The book will teach the basics of Python programming, installation, and so on and then will move on to projects. A total of three projects, with each and every step explained carefully, without any assumption of previous experience.

Adding music to games


pygame allows you to add music to your games. There is a music module that allows you to add music in a few formats to your game files. There are some limitations, including file types. For example, using universally supported .ogg file types is better than using file types such as .mp3, which are not natively supported on all operating systems.

Note

For more information, you can go to the pygame site at https://www.pygame.org/docs/ref/music.html and learn how to add your favorite sounds.
