AI in Action: Creative Spark

Ages 8–14

Creative Spark is where imagination meets AI. Each activity starts with the kid's own idea — a character sketch, a story concept, a song — and uses AI to expand, remix, and bring it to life. Kids learn that AI is a creative amplifier, not a replacement for their ideas. Every activity produces a shareable artifact: a short story with illustrations, a song, a movie pitch, and more.
