Hi Codeforces! My 14-year-old brother (10th standard, India) loves gaming (Minecraft, chess) and knows basic math but has little coding experience due to rote learning and poor schooling. I want him to enjoy competitive programming and excel. How do I make it fun? Context: He’s new to coding (some Scratch, Python).

Questions: Fun, beginner-friendly platforms or problems for a teen? How to keep him motivated through tough problems? Best resources (videos, apps) for a 10th-grader? Game-like coding contests or communities for kids?

Plan: Start with CodeCombat, solve easy HackerRank problems together, reward his first “Accepted.” Share tips or stories on making competitive programming fun for a beginner! Thanks! i_m_abbhay
