Internet safety

Internet safety is when we take important steps to make sure we are safe when we use the internet, just like wearing a helmet when we ride a bike.

We need to be careful when we talk to people we don't know online, just like we should never talk to strangers in the park or in a store. We should also be careful what kind of information we share online, like our names, where we live, and our phone numbers.

We should also be careful about what we click on when we're online. Sometimes, bad people make fake websites or links that look like something we might want to click on, but when we do, we might get a virus or other harmful things on our computer.

Another important thing is to talk to a grown-up we trust if we ever see something online that makes us feel uncomfortable or scared. We should never keep it to ourselves or try to handle it alone.

Remember, the internet can be a really fun and cool place to learn and play, but we need to be safe so we can enjoy it without any problems.
