Your kid already loves the computer. Point it at making things.
Young Builders teaches the kids of today the technology of tomorrow: each builder creates an AI app around something they already love, learns to use AI well in their studies, and demos real work to the room at the end.
They build around what they love
Every kid has an interest, and that interest is the curriculum. A builder who loves singing makes an AI singing coach that listens and encourages practice. A dancer builds a practice trainer. A reader builds a story companion; a footballer, a drills app. When a kid builds a tool for something they care about, nobody has to make them practice using it, and they cannot wait to share it.
Along the way they learn how software actually fits together and how to direct AI to write, fix, and explain code: the skill that will outlast any single tool.
AI for their studies, used well
The same skills point straight at school. Builders learn to use AI to study better: asking sharper questions, checking answers instead of copying them, and building their own study helpers for the subjects they find hardest. The goal is a kid who commands the tool, not one who leans on it.
Online, or hosted at your school or library
Cohorts run live online in small coached groups, with a parent nearby for the first session while accounts are set up together. We also partner with schools, libraries, and community programs: the venue provides the room and the laptops, we bring the curriculum and the coaches. If you run a program and want AI classes for your kids, write to us through the form below.
Every training is custom: cohorts are scheduled as groups form, and the projects follow the builders' interests, so no two cohorts are the same. Parents apply and parents hear from us; our privacy policy covers children in writing.
The details
- Ages: 9 to 15
- Format: live online, or in person at a school, library, or community venue that hosts us
- Groups: small, with real coaches
- Scheduling: custom; cohorts are scheduled as groups form, dates come with our reply
- Finale: the family demo, where they show you what they made
Enrol a builder, or host a program
Parents: tell us who is building. Schools and libraries: tell us about your program. Hannah replies with next steps either way.
