Celebrate Scratch Day!
Scratch Day is a global network of events where people gather to celebrate ScratchJr and Scratch, the free creative coding platform and online community for kids. Scratch Day events bring together young people from the Scratch and ScratchJr communities to share projects, learn from each other, and welcome newcomers. You can host a Scratch Day any day of the year!
In this page, you’ll find tools and resources so you can host your own Scratch Day, as well as learn about the Scratch Days happening all around the world.
