For the 2019 event we went pretty simple. We created apps in Prototyping on Paper
It went pretty well and the kids creativity took over quickly. The concept is pretty simple - it's the early web design concept of an image map. You can draw or print your app UI concept and then create hot spots on the image that link to another image. You can sketch up buttons and then make them clickable, and when you click that button it goes to another image.
I went to Micheals and purchased a bunch of colorful shirts and visors. The concept was to have them make an image that had colors on it. You would choose a color and that would link you to an image that had the child wearing a shirt in that color.
Over all it was a pretty successful event, the kids grasped the concept pretty quickly and then started making their own apps.
