Adding physics to a Scratch project can help kids understand the utility of math and science concepts. In this game, players carefully balance Scratch Cat on a high wire and try to avoid cat-astrophe. Behind the scenes, Scratch blocks determine the difference between a close call and a tumultuous tumble.
Hey, parents and educators! Like you, Scratch is thinking deeply about how AI intersects with children’s learning and creativity. We’d love to share some of our learnings with you on June 4 at our Creative Possibilities with Scratch in the Age of AI webinar. Join us to get hands-on with some of our newest blocks that incorporate machine learning. Register at the Link in Bio!

Looking for a new challenge in Scratch? Think small and try making minigames! Minigame collections are a great way to practice variables, broadcasting, and more as you assign the same user inputs to different functions: in this game collection, a mouse click could make a snail race faster, buy items in a store, or choose a card from a deck. What minigames might you try? 🐌🐙

In October 2025, thought leaders at the intersection of cognitive neuroscience, developmental psychology, AI, creative learning, education policy, philanthropy, and design convened at the OECD headquarters in Paris to imagine the future of learning through the lens of curiosity at our first annual Curiosity Convening.
We investigated how curiosity can be cultivated across classrooms and communities. With Scratch as a living case study, we surfaced insights into how curiosity-driven learning can support deeper and more joyful learning outcomes for kids around the world.
Learn more about what happens when curiosity leads the way at curiosityconvening.org.
