YOUMEWE Girls in Tech Showcase
Here is our showcase of amazing games created by young girls in Wakamatsu Ryo. Over the last four years, 5 girls in our class aged 8 to 13 have learned how to program and develop apps. We use a programing software called Click Team Fusion to teach professional quality app development. During our lessons the girls think about what they want to make and work with the teacher to bring their ideas to life. Here are selections of apps and games they developed.

“On Children
Kahlil Gibran
Your children are not your children.
They are the sons and daughters of Life’s longing for itself.
They come through you but not from you,
And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
For they have their own thoughts.
You may house their bodies but not their souls,
For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
You may strive to be like them,
but seek not to make them like you.
For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.
You are the bows from which your children
as living arrows are sent forth.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
and He bends you with His might
that His arrows may go swift and far.
Let your bending in the archer’s hand be for gladness;
For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
so He loves also the bow that is stable.”
