As Xmas is approaching many children and young people will be asking for new  devices. It's important that parents think carefully about these devices and the parental features that are available. It's equally important parents think about what the device will be used for, e.g. an all-singing-all-dancing smartphone when it will only be used for messaging and the odd phone call, would a dumb phone be better?

Internet Matters has put together a couple of really good guides for parents:

  • How to choose the right phone for your child - HERE

  • Children's tech guide 2023 - which has guides on a huge range of tech from laptops to gaming consoles, smart TV's and much more. The guides can be found HERE. 

 

 

 

 "How do I start that conversation with my child?"

Early and continuing conversations is important and should not be any different from any other normal conversation. 

To help parents, Internet Matters have put together some conversation starters and tips to help which you can find HERE.
