Hi young coders! ๐Ÿ‘‹ Let's talk about something super fun in Scratch: sprites.

๐ŸŽญ Meet the Sprite

In Scratch, a sprite is any character, object, or picture that you can move, animate, and give instructions to.

Think of it like this: A sprite is like an actor on a stage โ€” and you're the director telling it what to do!

๐ŸŽฎ What Can Sprites Do?

Sprites can:

๐Ÿ’ƒWalk, jump, or dance
๐Ÿ’ฌTalk with speech bubbles
๐Ÿ‘•Change costumes
๐ŸŽฒPlay games with you

๐ŸŒŸ Why Sprites Are Cool
