🎉 The Kids' Licence — free for children & teens

AI Scooter, AI Bicycle,
AI Moped

The Kids' Licence for children and teens: from scooter to moped through three stages, matched to the school year (3–10). Free, ad-free, with a parent check in every course.

Why a licence for AI

AI has long since reached the children's room

Homework, search engines, social media, voice assistants – children and teens already use AI, with guidance or without. Rather than banning that or ignoring it, the Kids' Licence gives them the tools to understand AI, recognise its limits and use it responsibly.

Three stages that grow with the school year: AI Scooter (Years 3–4), AI Bicycle (Years 5–7), AI Moped (Years 8–10) – each stage age-appropriate, each building on the one before.

How it works

Rules, Brakes, Riding – like a real driving school

Every stage has exactly three courses: Rules (how AI works and what it can do), Brakes (staying critical, spotting fakes and risks) and Riding (using AI yourself, and responsibly).

Every course ends with a parent check: the child tests their own parents on what they have learnt – often with a playful head start, because children frequently know more here than the adults do.

Rules
How AI works and what it can really do
  1. 1.
    Hello, I'm a chatbot! (what it can and cannot do)
    A chatbot is a text program that can answer, but does not really think or feel.
  2. 2.
    The computer does not know everything
    A chatbot only knows what it has learnt, and can get new or rare questions wrong.
  3. 3.
    Guess: human or machine?
    Small clues that sometimes give away AI text (for example very smooth, with no personal details).
  4. 4.
    Why robots sometimes answer wrongly
    A chatbot guesses from patterns and can get it wrong or make something up.
  5. 5.
    Parent check: test your parents – do they know what a chatbot can do?
    Parent check format: the child tests their parents with their own questions on the course topic.
Brakes
Staying critical, spotting fakes and risks
  1. 1.
    Don't believe everything the screen says
    Pictures, texts and answers on screen can be wrong, made up or altered.
  2. 2.
    If a picture looks odd – ask!
    Typical signs of an edited or made-up picture (for example odd hands, details that do not fit).
  3. 3.
    Talk to mum or dad before I believe something
    Why it helps to ask first, before believing or sharing something online.
  4. 4.
    My data is like my home – not for strangers
    A comparison: your own data is like your own home, which you do not simply open to strangers.
  5. 5.
    Parent check: who gets the “hang on a moment” right faster – you or your parents?
    Parent check format: working through a situation together where you should be careful.
Riding
Using AI yourself, and responsibly
  1. 1.
    Trying an AI tool yourself for the first time
    A safe first go with an AI tool: opening it, making a first entry, judging the answer.
  2. 2.
    Making up a story with help from AI
    Using AI for story ideas, with your own imagination staying at the centre.
  3. 3.
    Letting AI draw a picture of your own
    A short look at image AI tools, used on your own.
  4. 4.
    What do I like and dislike about AI answers?
    Learning to put your own likes and criticisms of AI results into words.
  5. 5.
    Parent check: show your scooter badge to your parents – do they know what you have learnt?
    Parent check format: presenting your own results (story or picture) to your parents at the end.
Taken straight from the curriculum, with a short description for every learning unit – no placeholder topics.
For parents

Not made for children alone

AI Scooter, AI Bicycle and AI Moped are built so that children and young people work through them on their own: the chat tutor guides them through every learning unit, nobody has to sit alongside them or approve anything. Parents still appear – the other way round. Every course ends with a “parent check”: the child puts tricky questions to the adults about what they have just learnt, then compares the answers. A playful success, because children often know more here than the adults do. Parents who want to learn along are welcome – but they are not a requirement.
