Last week at BETT 2Simple hosted a daily 45 minute show at Stephen Heppell’s Playful Learning stand. We proved that it was possible for children as young as six to create their own games quickly and easily. Many of these children also customised their games further using Action Script. The children involved came from Gearies Infants, Cleveland Junior in Redbridge and Lampton Secondary School in Hounslow. For the primary aged children this was the culmination of a project they had run of Game design. Here the children in Cleveland Juniors created games for the children in Gearies Infants. They swapped ideas and suggested improvements via blogs and skype. You can read more about this project on their blog here. Thanks also to the BBC who picked this up, read their article, with quotes from our very own Max Wainewright on their news site.
