“My daughter always thought computer programming was for boys, but she could not put down Hopscotch, and said building a game seemed fun to her too.”

-Michael, father of Erin, age 12

“This is a terrific beginning programming environment where kids don't have to sweat the syntax—a great use for the iPads in the classroom. Can't wait for more.”

- Steve Kinney, Technology Teacher, Scholars' Academy

“I like it because it's fun and you can make the characters do whatever you want and play it like a movie.”

-Audrey, age 8

We founded Hopscotch so we could build the toys we wish existed when we were kids. Made with ♥ in NYC by these friendly people.

Jocelyn Leavitt, Co-Founder, CEO

Jocelyn is a former teacher at Dalton. Since her undergraduate days at Dartmouth, she’s been excited about the power of project-based learning to transform educational experiences. She wished she had studied engineering and is making this product to compensate. She grew up in Honolulu, HI and really, really enjoys swimming in natural bodies of water.

Samantha John, Co-Founder, CTO

While an engineer at Pivotal Labs in New York City, Samantha taught multiple programming classes to beginners. She taught herself programming after graduating from Columbia University with a degree in Applied Mathematics. She hails from the proud city of Detroit and can probably beat you barefoot in a marathon.

Andy Pressman, Designer

Andy runs Rumors, a design studio for print and screen. He’s taught information design at the Cooper Union, graphic design at Parsons, and spends most of his day staring out of windows from his home in Portland, OR.

Zack Seuberling, Designer

Zack Seuberling is a graphic designer and web developer. He has taught interaction design at Pratt Institute and Parsons School for Design. He may be the most famous Seuberling to ever live.
