The "learning through making" approach is really good. When I've explained LLMs to non-technical people, the breakthrough moment is usually when they see temperature in action. High temperature = creative but chaotic, low temperature = predictable but boring. You can't just describe that.

What I'd add: the lesson about hallucinations should come early, not just in the RAG module. Kids (and adults) need to internalize "confident-sounding doesn't mean correct" before they get too comfortable. The gap between fluency and accuracy is the thing that trips everyone up.
