Dads have the opportunity to use the tech to have a ton of AI fun with their kids. Ted Lowe, Bobby Lewis, and Buck Buchanan toss out ideas we can use AI to make lasting memories with our kids. Why should you have some AI fun with your kids? For starters, it's believed using AI can improve social skills and brain development, and also spark curiosity and exploration. AI can boost creativity and invite kids to think critically. If you're using it with your kids, you're also connecting and spending quality time together.What are common ways dads are using AI with their kids?  ·      Use AI to create fun science experiments.  ·      Use AI to turn a trip to the park into a learning experience.·      Use AI to create (or continue) a bedtime story for your child.·      Use AI to write fun riddles and jokes. All Pro Dad has researched how kids may utilize AI socially. Two popular ways kids are already using AI are as a friend and a therapist.We get it if the idea of spending time creating fake images, songs, and other goofy things with your kids sounds odd. But, if they like it, consider embracing it with enthusiasm.  Bottom line: AI isn't going away, so embrace the fun side of it with your kids. Pro Move: If your kids are asking to use it, do some research on which AI apps or websites would be a good fit for your family. Participate together and make some memories.Other resources: Introduction to AI for Dads (See an entire series of AI content with this link)5 Unique Uses for AI at Home to Make Learning Fun2 Ways Your Child Might Engage Socially with AI – Part 12 Ways Your Child Might Engage Socially with AI – Part 2EXTRAS: Follow us: Instagram | Facebook | X (Twitter)Join nearly 200,000 other dads by subscribing to the All Pro Dad Play of the Day.
