Kids spend time online: chatting with friends, sharing photos, doing homework. The internet offers a world of opportunities, but there are risks too. The best way to protect your kids online? Talk to them. Kids rely on their parents for important information – like how to be safe and responsible online.
Check out the OnGuardOnline.gov website to help you get started in talking with your child about cyber bullying, socializing online, sexting and cellphones, and other important topics.
Parenting wired kids can be difficult, especially if you didn’t grow up with the same technologies. The NetSmartz Workshop site is designed to introduce younger children to basic Internet safety concepts through interactions with animated characters – Clicky, a yellow robot, and the sister-and-brother team, Nettie and Webster. Children learn the importance of being safer on- and offline from the repetition of safety messaging in Clicky’s songs. The ultimate goal of NetSmartzKids is to teach children to identify online dangers and practice safer behaviors.
