Netsafe has created the Online Safety Parent Toolkit to get parents and whānau talking about online safety. As young people spend more time online, it’s important that parents and whānau can teach their children to have a safe online experience.

ONLINE SAFETY PARENT TOOLKIT

The Online Safety Parent Toolkit is a simple and practical seven-step framework to help parents with digital parenting in a rapidly changing world. Our downloadable version of the Parent Toolkit offers practical tips that will help you talk to your child about online safety. It includes:

• Quickstarter tips for parents, whānau and young people
• Information to enhance your digital parenting knowledge
• Details about the online risks and challenges your child may face
• Advice about how you can help your child

It’s important for parents to feel confident to have ongoing conversations with their children about their online activities, as these conversations have been proven to minimise the harm that can occur if things do go wrong online.
