The First AI Creation Lab for Kids (Spring 2026)

SPRING WAITLIST NOW OPEN!

Grades: 3rd-8th

Teachers: Mark and DreamloomAI Coaches

Class Description:

Your child is growing up in a future that works differently from the world we knew. Creative fields, jobs, and everyday tools are changing fast, and kids will grow up using tools we never had. Most parents are unsure how to help their children stay ahead. DreamLoomAI was built for that reality.

Kids start with imagination. They draw characters, invent creatures, and dream up simple stories. Then we guide them as modern AI tools transform those ideas into real creations: trading cards, animations, songs, and more. Week by week, they get better at expressing ideas clearly and steering the tools that will shape their future.

This is not coding. Not tutoring. Not babysitting. This is a creation lab.
