The Jumping Bunny

2. Choose Your Sprite

  • You will see a cat on the screen first.
  • Delete the cat.
  • Open the character library.
  • Select the Bunny character.
  • Tap the checkmark to add it.

3. Add a Background

  • Tap the background picture button.
  • Choose a garden, forest or field.
  • Tap the checkmark to save.

4. Add the Code Blocks

Now we will make the bunny move when you click it.

  1. Tap on the Bunny.
  2. Drag these blocks into the code area.
  3. Join them together in the correct order.

5. Try It Out!

  • Tap on the Bunny and watch it jump twice and move forward.
  • If it doesn't move, check the order of your blocks again.
