NeuronForge Academy Presents Tech Trailblazers #1: Code to Chill
Code to Chill (NeuronForge Academy: Tech Trailblazers Book 1)
Does your child love coding but struggle with anxiety? Meet Maya, an 8-year-old Black girl coder, in Code to Chill, the first book in the exciting NeuronForge Academy: Tech Trailblazers series for ages 6-9 When Maya faces overwhelming nerves at her school science fair, she builds a music-playing robot to calm her jitters, learning valuable STEM skills like coding loops and sensors along the way. But when a coding bug and a quirky judge test her, Maya must use a deep-breathing trick (4-7-8) to stay chill and shine. This heartwarming story blends STEM education with SEL tools, teaching kids how technology and self-regulation can conquer anxiety and build confidence.
In Code to Chill, young readers explore:
STEM Concepts: Loops (repeating code instructions), sensors (detecting motion), and debugging (fixing code mistakes).
SEL Skills: Self-regulation through deep breathing, patience, and resilience.
Diverse Representation: Maya, a Black girl coder, and her friend Leo, a Hispanic boy, reflect inclusive, relatable heroes.
Aligned with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) and Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) frameworks, this book is a must-have for parents and educators seeking children's STEM books that also address emotional growth. Kids will love the fun activities-like coding a sound in Scratch, playing a paper coding game, or designing their own chill bot-while parents appreciate the breathing guide, discussion questions, and tips for supporting self-regulation at home or in the classroom.
