Advanced Minecraft Modding with Java

Think mod = modification. There are thousands of Minecraft mods, each of them designed to change the game in some way, whether with a special environment, ways to speed up the game, or some other customization, mods are part of why kids love Minecraft. Plus, they’re a surefire way to motivate kids to learn to code! With the power of Java coding, kids can mod Minecraft - or alter the game’s original code - by adding custom items and blocks to enhance gameplay and expand the open-world game even further.

Minecraft is an excellent way to introduce coding concepts to kids. Constructive game time that incorporates Java is an ideal bridge that connects valuable programming skills with the game kids already love. Learn more about Minecraft coding for kids.
