11th February is Safer internet day
As screens and the online world become more and more a part of children’s everyday life it is important that we consider how we can keep them safe when accessing the online world. Undressed - A catchy video and song warning of the dangers of getting undressed online. Suitable for EYFS and early KS1, you can also download a power point and activities at undressed.lgfl.net.
Here is a webinar around Screens in the Early Years | early years alliance.
