Take Breaks and Balance Your Time

Use your arms to remind yourself to take breaks. It’s important to balance your time between being online and doing other fun things, like climbing a tree or playing outside.

Pause and Think

From your head down to your toes, always remember to pause and think about what you’re doing online. It’s a good habit to have!

Trust Your Feelings

Listen to your gut feelings when you’re online. If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t. Make safe choices and play in a way that keeps you happy and secure.

Stand Up to Bullies

Use your legs to stand up against bullies. If someone is being mean online, you can help by being a good friend and standing up for others. Be brave and strong!

Think About Your Online Footprints

Use your feet to remember that everything you do online leaves a mark, just like footprints. Keep your information private and don’t share with strangers.

Be Kind and Respectful

Use your heart to do what’s right. Always be kind and respectful to others on the internet. Treat your friends nicely and show them you care.

Remember to Pause and Think!

So, use your head to think smart! Balance your time with your arms! Listen to your gut feelings! Stand up with your legs! Leave good footprints with your feet! And always feel with your heart! Just pause and think online!

  1. Online Safety Charades: Gather a group of friends or family members and play a game of charades. Each person takes turns acting out different online safety tips from the article, like “taking breaks” or “standing up to bullies,” without using words. The others have to guess which tip is being acted out. This will help you remember the tips in a fun and interactive way!

  2. Create a Safety Poster: Use your creativity to make a colorful poster that shows one of the online safety tips. You can draw pictures, use stickers, or even cut out images from magazines. Hang your poster in a place where you use the internet often to remind yourself and others to stay safe online.

  3. Footprint Detective: With the help of an adult, explore a safe website or app you use regularly. Look for ways you can leave “good footprints,” like setting a strong password or choosing a private profile. Discuss with your adult helper why these choices are important and how they help keep your information safe.
