Critical Thinking
Is this output good? Is it true? Does it solve the problem? Kids learn to evaluate, not just accept, and to express their own vision and hold on to it.

We teach kids to think critically, to understand what AI actually is, and to direct it, in our AI Labs, using a curriculum and platform designed for kids.
Safe screen time that counts.





Apps, games, comics, and more. No coding experience required.

Is this output good? Is it true? Does it solve the problem? Kids learn to evaluate, not just accept, and to express their own vision and hold on to it.
The hard part isn't building. It's knowing what to build. Kids learn to break big ideas into specific, buildable pieces.
The difference between okay output and great output is how you ask. Kids learn to craft specific, structured prompts, not just "make it cooler."
One of the most important AI skills. Without the right context, it doesn't matter how you prompt or which model you use. Kids learn to give AI everything it needs to build their vision.
Things break. Output isn't right. Kids learn to test, diagnose, and iterate until it works.
AI amplifies ideas. It doesn't replace thinking. Kids learn to direct it, not depend on it.
Programs
Children develop critical thinking and put it to work with artificial intelligence in our AI Labs. They learn to decide what's worth creating, to plan, to give the machine what it needs to know, and to judge whether what it makes is any good. We teach the concepts, then they use them to build apps, games, comics, stories and images in Spark, our platform designed for kids.
Labs culminate in Demo Day, our favorite part. Kids present what they've made to family and friends, startup style.

We bring the program, the instructor and Spark, our AI platform for kids. Schools provide the classrooms.


Day camps by the Mediterranean. Children take a project from first idea to Demo Day in a single week.
Alicante, Spain · Spring · Summer 2027
The full AI Kids Club experience, from home. Wherever home is.
Kids ages 7 to 14.
No experience needed.

Ages 7–9
Are introduced to AI and learn to direct it with voice and tablets.

Ages 9–12
Move from tablets to computers and go beyond the basics.

Ages 12–14
Understand AI in depth, and build more complex projects.
We’re Brian and Ariana: a tech leader and educator working in AI, previously at Etsy, Bumble and Udacity, and a data scientist with a background in AI and machine learning.
We’re also parents, which is why we know how important it is for kids to learn to use AI the right way. To understand what it is and what its limitations are. To see themselves as the directors using their own critical thinking and imagination, and not delegating it to a machine.
We started AI Kids Club by accident, as an experiment with our own kids. So many people asked us to run it for them that we piloted an in-person program, in a pirate watchtower turned vineyard by the Mediterranean. That went so well that now we’re bringing it to schools and the rest of the world.



We built Spark from the ground up for children’s AI programs, and every AI Kids Club session runs on it. Kids use it to make working apps and games, illustrated stories and comics, and images.

An AI learning platform built for children, with safeguards built in. Instructors set up their accounts.
Instructors guide the learning and manage how and when kids use Spark.
Kids don’t need personal AI accounts. They work within their class, and their work isn’t public unless an instructor approves sharing.
AI education for kids, taught through real projects. In our AI Labs, children learn to think critically, understand AI, and direct it to make apps, games, comics and stories. We teach in small groups, with an instructor guiding the learning.
Kids ages 7 to 14. Select your child's age in the form below.
No coding, robotics, or AI experience needed: just curiosity and willingness to experiment. We start from the basics, and beginners have presented finished work at Demo Day.
School programs follow each school's timetable. Our next camps are Semana Santa and summer 2027 in Alicante, and Online Labs are coming soon. Sign up and we'll tell you when dates are set.
Yes. Groups are small, so the instructor knows what every kid is building and can help in the moment.
It depends on the program. In partner schools it runs in English with Spanish support or fully in Spanish, as the school chooses.
At partner schools, and at our camps in Alicante. Online Labs are coming soon.
It depends on the program. In partner schools, devices are arranged with the school. For any other program, we tell you what your child needs before the first session.
We'll share materials and help them catch up. The project-based format means they can pick up where they left off.
Partner schools set their own prices. Prices for our upcoming camps and Online Labs will be announced with those programs.
Robotics focuses on building and programming physical machines. AI Kids Club teaches children to plan, direct AI, evaluate its output and improve it through their own apps, games, comics and stories. The emphasis is on thinking and judgment they can use across AI tools.
This is creating, not consuming. Kids build real projects: games, stories, apps. Not scrolling or watching. It's the difference between playing piano and listening to music.
Kids keep what they make. They can continue developing their skills through further Labs and camps, taking on more ambitious projects as they gain experience. Ask us about the next available group.
Yes. We run the program inside partner schools: in the school's timetable, with the group size the school sets, and the school handles sign-ups. It can run in English or fully in Spanish, whichever fits the school. El Valle and King's College run it now.
We'd love to talk. We're already in conversation with people who want to run AI Kids Club where they live, and we're working out what that looks like together with them. If that's you, write to info@aikidsclub.org and tell us about your community.
Schools & Partners
We run AI extracurriculars and workshops inside schools, and partner with academies and camps that want to bring AI Kids Club to their city. See the full program, safety model, and real student results.
