About this course
What if your child could create with AI, not just watch it?
Your child will grow up with AI. Let's teach them to create with it.
The TAKXILA Junior AI Challenge turns screen time into creative time. Over 28 days, children aged 8–12 complete one hands-on mission every day. Each mission asks them to try, create and improve something of their own instead of passively watching.
The journey:
• Day 1: Meet your AI creative buddy
• Next: Create quizzes, solve puzzles, explore the world
• Then: Build school projects, imagine characters, write stories
• Finally: Design and build your own game in Scratch
