Here are some safety tips to remember as your child starts to play
free educational games. |
|
Teach your child to never give personal information over the internet, such as his/her name, address, telephone number, password, parents' names, any club, team or organization they are part of, or school name.
|
|
Keep your child's computer in an open area of your home and find out what other computers and devices children may be using outside of your home.
|
|
Establish rules about the computer in your home and an agreement with your children about Internet use at home and outside of the home.
|
|
Talk to your children about the dangers of chat rooms. If you do allow your children to chat on Instant Messaging programs, know who is on their buddy list.
|
|
Implement filtering tools and secure the family computer by regularly updating the operating system, and installing a firewall. Make sure to keep up-to-date virus and anti-spyware software on your computer as well.
