I think it is likely a pretty solid idea to not teach kids how digital circuits and whatnot work, but rather to tell them. Make them aware that the knowledge of how they work is out there. Humans have a tendency to fill in gaps in their knowledge with superstition, though even the most basic of naturalistic frameworks should be sufficient to keep that tendency under control.
