In 2018, Karan Bajaj, ex-CEO of Discovery India founded WhiteHat Jr., an educational-tech startup to help kids, aged six to 14, build online games, animations and apps. All of this by teaching them the fundamentals of coding and algorithmic thinking. "As a father of two daughters, I believe in the incredible power of early childhood learning. After reading a fair bit on the subject from MIT and TUFTS, I found that kids who code, see themselves as creators very early on, and start to view life as a giant playground of experimentation," says Bajaj, who has received $10 million in funding for his company. Here are four of the most successful apps that his team of young thinkers have created for you to check out for your kid.
