I’m Mirela Letailleur, creator of Teach Kids AI and founder of the award-winning travel blog The Travel Bunny.
As a boy mom in a trilingual household (French, Romanian, English) and an aunt, I started Teach Kids AI out of a very personal concern: how will my child and his cousins grow up in a world shaped by AI, and how can I help them thrive, while still respecting healthy screen time limits recommended by pediatricians and the WHO? I knew I wasn’t alone in this. Many parents I know are asking the same questions, and Teach Kids AI is my way of helping families find practical, balanced solutions.
My background spans travel, education, digital content, and events: at the British Council in Bucharest, I was a Teaching Centre Coordinator, and also handled the department’s digital side, together with educational events. Before that, at Mara Study Tourism, I deepened my experience in international educational programs. I’ve also drawn from hands-on experiences teaching English to one of my nieces and preparing lessons for children in my community. And while I’ve consulted studies and educators for my books, I remain open to constructive feedback because staying curious and open-minded is at the core of my work.
As the voice behind The Travel Bunny, I’ve explored the world with my husband, focusing on cultural travel, local immersion, family-friendly tips, and budget-concious advice. Traveling frequently between Eastern Europe and the West has shown me how uneven child-centered design can be. In the West, museums, castles, and cities often cater to children in ways I never experienced growing up in Romania or the Balkans. This shaped my belief that kids everywhere deserve joyful, enriching learning experiences, whether through travel or education.
In Teach Kids AI, I combine research-backed insights with a deeply human approach. My writing recognizes that some parents are learning alongside their children, some are eager to deepen their own understanding, and some need help translating complex tech ideas into language their kids can understand. At its heart, this project is about raising curious, creative, ethical young thinkers. Not handing kids over to devices, but engaging with them meaningfully.
