Children can learn programming using different tools. Understanding how the characteristics and features of each tool impact the learning effect will enhance learning. However, the impact of specific tools on the learning effect is unclear. In this study, we conducted a workshop to evaluate the characteristics and features of six tools on the learning effect. Our study reveals that the learning effect clearly differs between the six tools.
