Free quick reference: What kids do with AI, by age

The free companion to How Your Kids Use AI, Lesson 2: What Kids Do With AI, by Age. A one-page card to keep on the fridge. Find your child's age, then read across.

• Ages 5–8: what's normal, what to watch for, and what to try.
• Ages 9–12: when chatbots and AI pictures arrive, and why this is the age to set house rules.
• Ages 13–17: when AI moves from homework help to advice about health, the future and feelings.
• One question to ask this week for each age.
