Safety on the Internet
A world of learning awaits you and your child on the Internet. Your child may be ahead of you already. Many children have internet access at school, and it will become an increasingly important source of information. Whether or not you have internet access at home, it's essential that you learn with your children and be aware of where their travels are taking them.
You don't need to know much about computers to gain access to the wealth of information the internet can yield. Together with your child, start exploring all the child-friendly places on the Internet. You'll discover all sorts of way to encourage your child to read, write, improve math skills or do research.
