Join Waitlist

Hands-on technical skills for the curious builder. Your child will train real AI models, write block code, and explore how bias shapes what machines learn — all guided by Lio.

What you'll learn

  • How AI perceives the world — vision, language, patterns
  • Block coding fundamentals: loops, conditionals, events
  • How machines learn from examples and training data
  • What bias is and how it enters AI systems
  • How to think like an engineer — plan, build, iterate

What you'll build

  • An image classifier trained on your own photos
  • An interactive Scratch game with AI-powered rules
  • A capstone project solving a real problem you care about

By the end, you'll be able to

  • Explain how AI learns from data in your own words
  • Write and debug basic code using block programming
  • Spot bias in AI systems and explain why it matters

Play-based discovery designed for the youngest learners. Kids explore what AI is, how machines see and hear, and how to stay safe online — through stories, games, and creative activities with Lio.

What you'll learn

  • What AI is and where it lives in everyday life
  • How machines see and recognize patterns
  • How to give clear, step-by-step instructions
  • Safe and responsible technology use
  • Creative expression with AI art tools

What you'll build

  • A digital story co-created with AI
  • A pattern-recognition art project
  • A simple instruction sequence (your first algorithm)

By the end, you'll be able to

  • Describe what AI is using your own examples
  • Give clear step-by-step instructions to a friend or computer
  • Make thoughtful choices about technology use

  • AI ethics: bias, deepfakes, surveillance, intellectual property
  • Career pathways in technology and AI

What you'll build

  • A Python automation script that solves a real problem
  • A data visualization project using real-world datasets
  • A capstone project presented to a community panel

By the end, you'll be able to

  • Write and debug Python programs independently
  • Critically evaluate AI systems for ethical risks
  • Present a technical project with confidence
