Tools to help you talk to your child about digital safety and wellbeing

On average, parents will only spend 46* minutes discussing online safety with their child during their entire childhood. Most grown-ups just don't know where to start. And that’s absolutely fine. It’s hard to keep up with what kids are up to online, let alone know how to keep them safe from harm.

Our ‘Build and Talk’ activities give you the tools to have a relaxed but useful conversation with your kids about life online as you tackle some fun and simple builds together.

Tools to help you talk to your child about cyberbullying

If your child uses messaging apps, plays video games or watches videos online, they might have encountered some kind of cyberbullying. Most children will really benefit from talking to a parent or a trusted grown-up about their experience, but often children don’t know how to start, or what to say.

Our ‘Build and Talk Cyberbullying’ activity gives you the tools to have a relaxed and useful conversation with a child about online bullying as you tackle some fun and simple builds together.
