Simple online safety for young children
The worksheets introduce ideas that children can use while watching videos, playing games or using a tablet with an adult nearby. Activities cover private information, safe passwords, kind communication, trusted adults, links and messages that need adult help. Younger children can colour, match pictures and circle safe choices. Older children can read short situations, sort actions and explain what they would do. The language stays simple and the examples suit everyday family life, so you can talk through each activity without making the internet seem frightening.
Use the pages for talk and practice
At home, complete one activity before or after your child's usual screen time. Ask your child to name a trusted adult and practise saying, "I need help with something I saw online." In class, read each situation aloud and let children show their answer with a colour or hand signal before writing. Pair children to discuss kind and unkind messages, then share a few answers. You can also connect this set with Safety Rules Worksheets or Stranger Safety for Kids when teaching safe choices in different places.
Correct common online safety mistakes
Children may think that a game or message is safe because it looks colourful, or they may believe that a stranger online is a friend. They may also share their name, school, photo or location without understanding why these details matter. Gently repeat three steps: stop, do not reply or click, and tell a trusted adult. Explain that children will not be blamed for asking for help. Keep the rule clear that an adult should check new apps, websites, chats and downloads. Revisit the conversation as your child's online activities change.
Lumi's tips
- Make it easier by reading the instructions aloud and offering two choices at a time.
- Make it harder by asking your child to explain why a choice is safe and name the next action.
- Keep it real by checking a pretend message together and practising how to close it and call an adult.

Teach children not to share their full name, address, school, phone number, passwords, photos or location without checking with a trusted adult.
