I built Tinkrcat to teach my kids how to use AI in a safe, fun way, starting with video games. Since launching, they've built lots of video games, and also, quizzes, flash cards, and tools to help with homework projects. What's been interesting is watching them dream something up, then creating it. I'd love for you (and your kids / nieces / nephews) to try it and let me know your thoughts.

Could you build this?
Partial The kids' game and quiz builder UI is vibe-codeable, but a safe platform for children needs strong content moderation and sandboxed generated-code execution that go beyond a quick build.
What it would actually take: Typical stack: an LLM generating game code (or a constrained game DSL) that runs in a sandboxed iframe, with a parent account system, sharing, and a multiplayer layer. The hard parts are child-safety moderation of prompts and outputs, preventing malicious generated code, and COPPA-style compliance, which call for trust-and-safety and privacy expertise.
