8 activities · full 4–6 cohort complete
True things and story things
Help your child sort TRUE THINGS from STORY THINGS — and celebrate the bravest answer of all: "I'm not sure." Builds vocabulary for spotting misinformation before it matters.
Secret stuff and share stuff
Teach your child the difference between SECRET STUFF (keep it in the family) and SHARE STUFF (safe to tell people). Builds the foundation for online privacy before your child ever has an account.
Who is my safe grown-up?
Help your child name their trusted adults and practise the most important safety phrase they'll ever learn: "I need to talk to a safe grown-up." Do this one right after Secret stuff and share stuff.
My device has eyes, ears, and a memory
Four short micro-sessions — one a day or one a week — to teach your child that their device can see, hear, and remember. The one habit: pause before tapping anything that asks for permission.
Making something together
Share ideas, build on what someone else started, and say who helped. The foundation for ethical creative collaboration — online and off.
Big feelings are real
Screens are exciting — that's exactly why big feelings happen. This activity gives children a word for the feeling and a next step that's theirs to choose.
Making my own thing first
Make something — draw it, build it, sing it — before watching anything. A simple weekly ritual that keeps your child's ideas ahead of the content they consume.
Real, pretend, and maybe-made-up pictures
Two sessions — do them a day apart. Session 1: real vs. pretend. Session 2: add the tricky third category — pictures that look real but a computer made them. All three example pictures are embedded; no internet needed.
Full 4–6 cohort complete. All 8 activities for this age group are ready. Ages 7–9 activities coming next.
