Safer Internet Day takes place in February of each year to raise awareness of a safer and better internet for all, and especially for children and young people.
As part of this annual celebration, we encourage everyone – including children and young people, parents and caregivers, teachers and educators, policymakers, industry and others – to join “Together for a better internet”.
Ask your children to tell you about the sites they like to visit and what they enjoy doing online.
What games do you and your friends like to play online? Can you show me the websites you visit the most? Shall we play your favourite game online together?
- Ask them about how they stay safe online. What tips do they have for you, and where did they learn them? What is OK and not OK to share?
- Ask them if they know where to go for help. Where can they go to find the safety advice, privacy settings and how to report or block on the services they use?
- Think about how you each use the internet. What more could you do to use the internet together? Are there activities that you could enjoy as a family?
