Your kid is going to use AI. Teach them how.
MyDD Learn is the game that teaches kids when AI is lying to them, and when it isn't. Four worlds, nineteen levels, painted AI characters who bluff, flatter, and hallucinate on purpose. Your kid earns stars for catching it.
You don't keep them from the knife. You teach them to use it.
Your kid is going to use AI. To research. To brainstorm. To procrastinate. Right now, ChatGPT and the rest will hand them an answer and never tell them when it just made something up. They teach them nothing about the tool.
Three parts. One subscription. Each one makes the next one matter.
Almost everything below is one of these three. The game teaches the habit. The chat is where they use it for real, every day. The dashboard is how you stay in it without reading over their shoulder.
MyDD Learn
A game where AI characters bluff, flatter, and make things up on purpose. They earn stars for catching them. Four worlds, nineteen levels.
Explore the game ›MyDD Chat
A chatbot built for a kid learning to question AI. Homework, curiosity, the things they'd otherwise ask ChatGPT, answered by one that knows they're ten and won't just hand them the answer.
See the everyday chat ›Parent visibility
Every conversation, named by topic, one sentence each. A digest on Sunday. A safety alert email if something's wrong. They know you can see it.
See what you get ›Six habits, learned by doing, not by hearing about them.
Each habit is practiced inside a level. Real chat, painted characters, scored on the behavior. In their first stretch of levels, they've done each of these four or five times.
Only 35% of kids know AI can't tell true from false. Even among kids who say they know "a lot" about AI, just 37% get it right.
That's the first thing MyDD Learn teaches.
Catch the bluff.
Notice when AI sounds sure but is making it up. Call out the "tell" before trusting the answer.
Ask for the source.
Click "check this" before trusting a confident-sounding fact. Learn that a real link looks different from a made-up one.
Keep private things private.
Spot when AI is asking for something that shouldn't be shared, name, school, address, even when it sounds friendly.
Push back on flattery.
Notice when AI is just agreeing. Make it disagree on purpose. Realize "good question!" is not an answer.
Use it to practice, not to copy.
Treat AI as a sparring partner, not a homework machine. Make it ask harder questions back.
Credit AI honestly.
Tell the truth about what AI did and what they did. The habit they'll need when school catches up to all this.
They type one question. Bao writes five sentences. One is made up. Find it.
That's Level 1·1, the on-ramp. Three rounds. Bao the Bewildering, an AI chatbot with a confident voice and shaky facts, answers what they asked. They decide what to trust.
-
Flag a sentence to call it out.
Tap any sentence they think is invented. The card turns warning-red. They can un-flag.
-
Check a source, free, no cost.
What an outside source actually says drops in under the sentence. We don't dock a star for verifying. The level teaches the opposite.
-
Push back on Bao.
"Are you sure?", and watch. Confident AIs almost never admit they're wrong. They invent more detail. That's the lesson they remember.
Bao the Bewildering Four worlds. Nineteen levels. A real chat your kid is the hero of.
Each world is built around one of the things AI does badly, or does well, if you know how. Each level is a chat with a character, painted and named, who plays it out. Kids practice the habit; they don't read about it.
Bamboo Grove
Where they learn the tells. Hallucinations, imposter pups, raccoons fishing for private info, fake citations, a castle that hoards false facts.

- 1·2 The Source Quest
- 1·3 Bluffer's Bluff
- 1·4 Raccoon Alley

Mirage Mesa
Where nothing is quite what it seems. Yes-man parrots, the cheat-cave trap, deepfake mirages, and a three-headed oracle who tells three versions of the same story.
- 3·1 Yes-Man Parrot Roost
- 3·2 Tutor Tree vs Cheat Cave
- 3·3 Mirror Mite Mirage
- 3·★ Three-Headed Oracle
Forge Foothills
Where the habit gets real. Climb the hard parts. Edit their own draft, not the AI's. Start a question here; finish it at real sources. Make AI argue back.

- 4·2 The Editing Forge
- 4·3 The Trailhead
- 4·4 The Sparring Ring
- 4·★ The Forge
The game ends at nineteen levels. This is the part that doesn't.
When they finish the worlds, the habit needs somewhere to live. MyDD Chat is where they actually use AI, homework, a question at 9 pm, the stuff they'd otherwise take to ChatGPT, except this one was built knowing they're a kid.
chat.mydd.ai · real chat MyDD won't hand over an answer it thinks they can reach themselves.
- Built for their age, not yours.A 6 to 17 dial. The same hard question gets a different answer for a 10-year-old than a 15-year-old.
- It won't do the work for them.Nudges thinking over copying, the same habit the game scores, now on real homework.
- It won't pretend to be their friend.Points them to a real person, doesn't play therapist, and isn't built to keep them glued to the screen.
- It was built knowing you'll read it.Visibility is the premise, not something bolted on after.
One email Sunday night. One alert if something's wrong.
While they play, the dashboard writes itself. Every star, every habit practiced, every concerning moment, in your inbox without you having to log in.
Four steps. Your kid plays first.
No card. No signup before they play. The first time your kid opens the game, you're handing them something for free.
They play World 1, free.
They jump straight into World 1. No account, no email, no card. Their progress saves right on that device. Twelve minutes, three rounds, five stars to earn.
You set up the account.
At the end, the game says "have a grown-up set this up." You open it on your device: email, a quick privacy consent, and a plan. The card confirms you're the parent, that's the COPPA consent step.
Pick who keeps the progress.
Choose which child profile inherits their World 1 stars. Their character and everything they earned carries straight over.
Hand back the login code.
Your kid signs in with their code and picks up right where they left off, now with Worlds 2–4 and MyDD Chat unlocked.
› Nothing identifying about your kid is saved while they play World 1. The run stays anonymous until a grown-up sets up the account, where a credit card confirms you're the parent. That card-based verifiable consent is how we stay COPPA-compliant before anything about your kid is stored.

What parents are saying
"My son Eli is nine and asks 'why' about everything. The first week, the dashboard showed me he'd spent twenty minutes asking how black holes 'eat' light — and it kept handing the question back to him instead of just answering. That was our dinner conversation that night."
Sarah Klein · Westchester County, NY
"What sold me was a Tuesday. My 13-year-old asked something about a kid being cruel to her in a group chat, and I got the safety alert the same afternoon — not buried in a Sunday summary. We talked it through that evening. I'd never have known otherwise."
Marcus Reed · Atlanta, GA
"My worry was homework — that she'd just outsource it. I read a transcript where she tried to get it to write her book report, and it walked her through outlining one instead. She was annoyed. I was thrilled."
Amina Hassan · Dearborn, MI
