As parents, we know the difficulty in bridging the gap between education and technology, and the struggle that comes with making sure your children are using technology safely. We prioritize education at e-Robotic Press, and it’s our mission to ensure that learning is fun, engaging, and effective. We know it can be scary to introduce your children to new technology such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), but we have put together a list of tips and tricks that will help parents and educators alike.
Keep AI Use Teacher and Parent Guided
Supervision is the name of the game when it comes to AI tools. Educators and parents should always model how to use the tools responsibly, demonstrating safe online behavior, respectful communication, and thoughtful questioning. When children see adults using AI as a learning aid rather than a shortcut, they learn to approach technology with curiosity and caution.
Encourage kids to ask questions like: “How did the AI create this?” or “Is this information accurate?” Guided conversations help children understand that AI is a tool to support learning—not replace their own thinking.
Focus on Understanding, Not Just Using
Children don’t need to become experts in programming to benefit from learning about AI. Instead, start by explaining simple concepts such as algorithms, patterns, and automation in age-appropriate ways. Help them understand that AI learns from data and that humans are still responsible for how it’s used.
Books, storytelling, and real-world examples can make these ideas approachable and fun. When kids understand the “why” behind technology, they develop stronger critical-thinking skills.
Promote Creativity and Exploration
AI can be a powerful tool for creativity. Encourage children to use AI for brainstorming ideas, generating artwork prompts, or exploring new topics of interest. Activities that combine imagination with technology—such as designing characters, creating stories, or inventing new solutions to problems—help kids see AI as a creative partner rather than just a technical tool.
Hands-on projects also help children build confidence while learning how technology can enhance their own unique ideas.
Teach Responsible and Ethical Use
An important part of AI education is helping children understand responsibility. Talk openly about issues such as privacy, misinformation, and fairness. Explain that not everything generated by AI is correct and that it’s important to verify information from trusted sources.
Encourage respectful use of technology, reminding children that their choices online have real-world impact. These early conversations build strong digital citizenship skills that will serve them throughout their lives.
Balance Screen Time With Real-World Learning
While AI can be engaging and educational, it’s still important to balance technology with hands-on experiences, outdoor play, reading, and face-to-face social interaction. Technology works best as one part of a broader learning environment.
Encourage children to connect what they learn from AI with real-world exploration—whether that’s building something with their hands, experimenting with science projects, or having conversations about what they’ve discovered.
