In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Nneka McGee, strategic advisor and AI education expert, to explore how we can prepare young learners for an AI world through developmentally appropriate, unplugged learning experiences. You'll also hear practical examples and simple conversation-based activities that help children build foundational AI literacy skills like pattern recognition, prediction, and critical thinking—without using generative AI tools. If you want to confidently introduce AI concepts to early childhood and elementary students in meaningful, age-appropriate ways, this episode has you covered!
