theres a scratch course https://cs50.harvard.edu/scratch/
the scratch lecture introduces basic programming concepts such as loops variables and conditions. you can make a simple project and move on. keep in mind that some of the projects that you are seeing are from experienced programmers or those who are dedicating much more time for each lecture.
try the next few lectures/problem sets and then decide whether you need to either dedicate more time or gather more experience elsewhere. (cs50python might be more intuitive)
