- If you want to make 3 Dimensional you can use clay or Play-doh.
Once your new neighborhood is created share it with your virtual camp group.
Creating Code with Blockly Cut-Outs
Children can use the command blocks that they are learning during their virtual sessions and create more programs with these command block cut-outs. Once they create the program using the command cut out blocks their family members must move by following the commands as if they were Dash. This is a great enrichment activity for your child to get deeper into the commands as well as teaching what they are learning to their family members.
