Python debuggers

Visual Studio Code is certainly very powerful, thanks for recommending it. There certainly are deeper layers of variables, both locals and globals, and then variables within variables. One can easily get bogged down. Will it be easier to drive if I simply watch a few variables ? Probably. For example I get the message:

Error:
'NavigableString' object has no attribute 'children'

caused by

print(tag.children.name)

so I need to inspect "tag". Is it an object, a class, a variable ??
