A parent-first starting point

Start teaching AI with one clear next step

For parents of children ages 7–14: begin with one idea your child can understand, build something small, use AI only with purpose, and practice safe habits throughout. This site follows that understand–build–use safely sequence, so your family can choose an age pathway without needing a child account.

Choose by age

Three pathways, one shared safety routine

Ages 7–9

Notice patterns through play

Use stories, sorting games, and short videos. Keep all digital use beside an adult and focus on asking, “What clues did the computer use?”

Ages 10–12

Build and test simple models

Try offline classifiers, visual coding, and guided projects. Compare predictions with evidence and record what changed after each test.

Ages 13–14

Investigate limits and impact

Explore datasets, bias, model choices, and responsible design. An adult still reviews accounts, privacy, sharing, and high-stakes questions.

Your first learning cycle

Watch one lesson

Preview it first, then pause to predict and explain.

3

Complete one activity

Build or test something small enough to finish together.

4

Reflect and verify

Name the evidence, check surprising claims, and protect private information.

Privacy reassurance

A child account is not required to start

Begin with offline sorting, conversation, and videos watched through an adult-managed household setup. Never enter a child’s full name, school, address, exact location, private photo, voice sample, or direct contact information into an AI tool.

Adults choose accountsReview age requirements, data use, sharing defaults, and deletion controls.
Children keep agencyAI can support thinking; it should not replace a child’s judgment or relationships.
