The big idea
AI workout coaches are good at making moves fun. But kids' bodies are still growing — make sure any AI workout is built for KIDS, not adults.
Some examples
- Apps can count your jumping jacks using the camera
- AI may suggest workouts that are too hard for kids
- Always check with a parent before starting a new workout app
- Going outside and playing is also a workout — no AI needed
Try it!
Make up a 5-minute workout with no app at all. AI is great, but you can do this.
Practice this safely
Try this with a low-stakes example and a trusted adult nearby. The goal is to notice how AI talks about exercise, not to let it make the decision for you.
- 1Ask AI to explain exercise in plain language, then underline anything that sounds uncertain or too broad.
- 2Give it one detail from "AI Workout Buddies for Kids" and ask for two possible next steps plus one reason each step might be wrong.
- 3Check fitness against a trusted source, teacher, adult, expert, or original document before you use it.
