Description

In this episode, "Protecting Kids Online," host Greg Doig lays out the challenges our tech-savvy kids face as they navigate the complexities of the internet. Sure, they can swipe through apps faster than most adults, but are they truly equipped to avoid scams, protect their privacy, and handle online interactions safely?

Greg introduces Google’s “Be Internet Awesome” program—a proven curriculum that helps kids from grades two to six, and beyond, build practical skills for digital citizenship. What makes this stand out? It’s fun, effective, loved by teachers, and requires no special prep or equipment. From understanding the importance of a private digital footprint to spotting scams and creating strong passwords, Greg walks us through the five essential rules every child should know online. Plus, with a special focus on AI literacy, he shows how kids can be savvy and thoughtful in an increasingly digital and automated world.

Tune in to learn how we can empower our children—and ourselves—to be confident, safe, and kind online.
