GETTING READY

โœ… How to prepare your child for Day 1

A little preparation goes a long way. Here is a simple checklist:

โœ“DeviceA laptop, tablet or desktop computer โ€” fully charged the night before or connected to power all through
โœ“InternetA stable internet connection โ€” test it the evening before Day 1
โœ“HeadphonesEarphones or headphones so your child can hear clearly if required
โœ“Quiet SpaceA comfortable, distraction-free spot to sit and focus
โœ“Notebook & PenFor jotting ideas โ€” encourage them to have one nearby
โœ“Snacks & WaterSessions run for 2 hours with a break in between โ€” a drink and light snack helps!
โœ“Log On EarlyEncourage them to join 10 or 5 minutes before 10:00am on each day

What your child should know about AI

We'll be reinforcing these principles throughout the programme, so your child learns to explore AI responsibly, not just enthusiastically.

01

AI isn't always right. AI tools can make mistakes or give inaccurate information โ€” it's important to double-check facts, not just accept answers at face value.

02

Never share personal information. Full name, address, school, or photos should never be typed into AI tools without a parent or teacher present.

03

AI is a helper, not a replacement for thinking. Encourage your child to use AI to support their ideas, not to do all the thinking for them.

04

Not everything AI creates is true or real. Images, videos, and text can be generated to look real. Their critical thinking is key.

05

Always ask an adult if something feels confusing or uncomfortable. If an AI tool says something strange, upsetting, or inappropriate, they should tell a parent or teacher right away.
