With all the technology around today that our kids are exposed to parents need to be aware. We teach our children not to talk to strangers and what is appropriate behavior outside of the home, but what about online?
How do you teach your children to surf the web safely? I think that this is a very REAL topic, which is why I am sharing it with you.
The More You Know Learning Series, in collaboration with NBC News, has launched Growing Up Online, a free eBook for parents to help keep their kids safe online.
The #GrowingUpOnline Blog App has a quiz you can take and see if your child is ready to safely surf the web. You can also download the free Growing Up Online eBook and watch four entertaining comic book stories that show real situations that may occur when your kids are online. The eBook provides helpful easy to use information that addresses the growing concern about kids’ online privacy and cyberbullying.
Take a look at the app and read the tips. You might just learn something that you didn’t know or think of before.

I got Net Novice, but I think I misread the first question… 🙂 Now that Samantha will be using computers at school I think it’s time to have this talk with her! Great topic!

I got Net Novice, but that’s because my oldest daughter doesn’t use the computer yet (at least not a real one), so I got the first two questions “wrong.”
