AI literacy for ages 5–16 · parent-controlled

Code tells a computer what to do. AI learns it.

CROODI teaches kids exactly how AI learns, in a safe, secure world with no open-ended chatbots.

Not a coding course: tomorrow AI writes the code, and people guide it. Kids learn to be those people through comic missions and hands-on labs.

Why AI, not just code

AI will write the code. People will manage it.

AI already turns a plain sentence into working code, and schools are starting to bring it into class. The lasting skill is knowing how AI learns, where it goes wrong and how to steer it.

That is what CROODI teaches. Kids don’t chat with a bot. They study one, catch its mistakes and train their own.

  • Not a coding course
  • Not a chatbot
  • A safe place to understand, test and train AI

How CROODI teaches

Discover. Use. Fix. Then train it in the Lab.

Every level takes one big question, like “How does AI see a picture?”, through four steps. Every mission ends with a quick game and a Boss quiz worth up to three stars.

  1. 1

    Mission 1

    Discover

    Meet the idea in a comic, like the one above.

    A story turns an invisible idea into something a child can picture.

  2. 2

    Mission 2

    Use

    Spot the same idea at school, at home and in apps.

    Seen in real life, AI stops being magic and starts making sense.

  3. 3

    Mission 3

    Fix

    Pixel gets it wrong. Your child works out why.

    AI is often confident and wrong. Spotting that is the skill.

  4. 4

    Level finale

    CROODI Lab

    Train a tiny AI by hand. Try one just below.

    Building it turns knowing into doing, and Pixel earns a new part.

The CROODI Lab

Train an AI yourself. Right here.

This is the real lab from Level 1. Your drawings are the training data.

  1. Teach. Draw 3 swords and 3 shields and label each one.
  2. Test. Draw a new one. Did Pixel get it right?
  3. Twist. Draw a potion. Pixel never learned one. What happens?
CROODI Lab

PixelTeach me! Draw 3 of each, and tell me which is which.
