GROWN-UP FIELD GUIDE

Help curiosity grow safely.

Ridbusters gives families and educators a shared language for claims, clues and changing your mind when the evidence changes.

For parents and carers

Explore together without turning discovery into a test. Ask what your young investigator predicts, which clue matters most and what new evidence could change the answer; a thoughtful correction is treated as progress, never failure.

For classrooms and libraries

Use a case as a fifteen-minute inquiry sprint: claim, first hypothesis, source check, counter-example and revised conclusion. The cards work for discussion circles, media-literacy lessons and cross-curricular science or history prompts.

Privacy by design

The public portal needs no account and keeps only small browser preferences such as language and intro state. HQ is protected; never enter a child’s name, address, school, health details, passwords or any other identifying or sensitive information in an AI conversation.

Fair-play rules

Be curious, kind and evidence-led. Do not use the portal to harm, deceive or identify another person; check unfamiliar external sources with a trusted adult, and remember that an AI character is a story companion rather than a human expert or emergency service.
