GPB Education is thrilled to announce the addition of Claw Control to our popular GASHA GO World games and animations for kids ages 4-8. The game leverages engaging characters and fun challenges to build kids’ foundational computer science (CS) skills. To help the Gashlings make stuffed animals to fill the claw machine, Claw Control encourages kids to break complex problems into smaller parts, known in the CS world as decomposition.
