Kid Using a Computer

What makes the internet great also makes it dangerous for kids.

The internet contains vast amounts of written, audio and video content that are easily accessible to everyone. Everyone including your curious little ones busy using smartphones, tablets and computers.

I’ve been guilty of handing my child a tablet while unable to monitor his every move. Sometimes, he comes across age inappropriate YouTube videos and picks up a certain curse word. Not good at all.

How do you prevent your child from accessing inappropriate content on the internet?

  • Limit computer use to 1-2 hours daily
  • Use Foozkids

What is it? It’s a clever app that introduces your child to technology (email, content, videos and games) while ensuring access to age-appropriate materials only. Parents can control the app settings from a dashboard to ensure internet safety at all times.

You need to pay for this service but I think it’s worth every penny! To learn more, go to PositiveKidStuff.com or Foozkids.com. This will surely make parenting a lot easier and smarter.
