For parents

Be by your child’s side while they use AI

AI chatbots are already in children’s hands. We teach both your child and you to use them correctly, safely and consciously; children learn through play.

Why parents need training too

Your child discovered AI before you did. Banning it is not the answer; you need to decide together what to use, how and when.

  • Answers are not always correct

    Chatbots can give wrong or age inappropriate answers, and a child may accept them without questioning.

  • Emotional topics are being shared with AI

    Children may also write their worries and problems to a chatbot. It helps to know these answers do not replace an adult or an expert.

  • To set rules, you first need to know

    A parent who understands the limits, safe use and how to ask good questions can truly guide their child.

What you learn in parent training

  • What AI is and how it works, in plain language that needs no technical background
  • Usage rules and limits suitable for your child’s age
  • How to ask good questions and spot a wrong answer
  • AI activities you can do at home with your child

For parent training, contact us on WhatsApp or by phone and we will plan a suitable schedule together.

Our method

Children learn by doing, playing and enjoying

Jean Piaget showed that children do not receive knowledge ready made; they build it by experimenting and exploring. Scratch itself traces back to the "learning by making" ideas of Seymour Papert of MIT, who worked with Piaget. We start AI from play and projects, not from slides.

Frequently asked questions for parents

My child already uses AI. Is training necessary?

Using AI and using it consciously are different. A child should learn to question answers, avoid sharing personal information and understand AI’s limits, and parents need to know this too. That is why we train both children and parents.

What age can children start?

We have programmes for ages 6 to 17. The age 6 programme is completely screen free and runs through play and movement.

Is preregistration paid?

No. Applying is free and no card details are requested. The programme fee is communicated before confirmed enrolment.

Do you provide AI training for parents?

Yes. We offer separate training for parents. Contact us on WhatsApp or by phone for the schedule and content.

Where are the classes held?

Face to face in our classroom in the Şekerhane neighbourhood of Alanya.
