Keeping Safe Online
The government have released information on how to be more aware of what your child is viewing online, especially during the Covid-19 crisis.
The internet is a fantastic resource for research and schoolwork, but make sure your child takes regular breaks away from the screen. If you find that they are spending a lot of time online and even thinking about it when they're offline (instead of spending time with family) then maybe it’s time to back off a bit.
There’s a whole world out there – and while the internet can be fun, creative and social, your child could be missing out on real life.
