Helping kids become creators, not just users of technology.
Nacht is a hands-on program for children aged 8–12 where students learn about AI, coding and technology by building their own games.
We bring the laptops, mentors and everything needed to run the program at your school.
Free for schools.
Kids are growing up with technology. We want them to learn how to create with it.
Children already use technology every day. But using an app and building one are two very different experiences.
Nacht gives students an early opportunity to go from:
“I use technology.”
to
“I can make something with technology.”
We believe this can help children become more curious, confident and willing to try building things on their own.
They build a game from their own idea.
We start with something children naturally enjoy: games. Students are placed into groups of five. Each group gets a Nacht mentor who guides them through the process. Together, they:
Because learning is better when children are excited to participate.
We don't want students sitting through another presentation about AI.
We want them to use AI to create something.
- When a student wants their character to jump, they have a reason to understand how to make it happen.
- When their game doesn't work, they have a reason to solve the problem.
- When they have a new idea, they have a reason to experiment.
The game gives them a reason to learn.
The game is fun. The learning is real.
Through one project, students get an introduction to:
Most importantly, they learn:
“I can build things myself.”
5 students. 1 mentor.
We intentionally keep groups small. Every group of five students gets a Nacht mentor who works with them throughout the experience. This means students can ask questions, try their own ideas and get help when they're stuck.
Our mentors don't build the game for the students.
They help the students build it themselves.
No previous experience needed.
- Students don't need to know coding.
- They don't need to know AI.
- They don't need to own a laptop.
They just need to be curious.
Our mentors guide students step-by-step and introduce technology in a way that is simple, practical and age-appropriate.
Everything needed to run the experience.
Schools don't need to buy equipment or create a new curriculum. Nacht provides:
We take care of the experience. Your teachers don't have to.
We know schools already have busy schedules. That's why we keep the process simple.
Your school provides:
- Students
- A suitable classroom or space
- A teacher/coordinator to help us coordinate the session
Nacht provides:
- Laptops
- Mentors
- Technology setup
- Learning activities
- Guidance throughout the project
No equipment to purchase. No new curriculum to create. No technical setup for teachers.
They don't just leave with what they learned. They leave with what they made.
At the end of the experience, every group has a game they created together. Students can share it with their families and friends.
Parents don't just hear:
“We learned about AI today.”
They get to see:
“Look what we made.”
Every student receives a Nacht e-certificate after completing the program. (Sample shown.)
We aren't trying to turn every child into a programmer.
That's not the goal. The goal is to give children an early experience of creating with technology.
A child who learns that they can take an idea and build something from it may approach future problems differently.
- They may become more curious.
- They may be more willing to experiment.
- They may be less afraid of technology.
And they may start asking:
“What could I build?”
That's the habit we want to encourage.
A generation of children who believe they can build a better future.
We don't know what today's 8–12-year-olds will build when they grow up. The technology will change. The jobs will change. The problems they face will change.
But we hope one thing doesn't:
Their belief that they can create something themselves.
Today, it might be a game. Tomorrow, it could be an invention, a company, a scientific idea or a solution to a problem around them. We want to give children that first experience of building early.
Because we believe people who learn to build can help build a better world.
A simple program with a meaningful outcome.
Nacht gives your students:
Your child already knows how to use technology.
Now let's help them create with it.
At Nacht, your child will work with other students to build a game using AI and coding.
They'll come up with an idea. They'll try to make it work. They'll get stuck. They'll solve problems. And they'll eventually have something they can show you.
Something they made themselves.
Give your students the chance to build something of their own.
- We'll bring the laptops.
- We'll bring the mentors.
- We'll guide them through the process.
They bring the ideas.
And they leave with something they can proudly say:
“I made this.”
