Kids love to explore. And if yours are like mine, they are particularly curious about the internet. Children observe au pairs (and parents) are often on the computer. Naturally they want to share in that experience. I recommend parents give the au pair guidance about what internet sites the au pair should show the children. Parents should also work with au pairs and cover basic safe surfing habbits. What are those?
Here's an Internet Safety Lesson Plan.
Looking for a great (fun and safe) website for kids of all levels? Try this fantastic site for kids that au pairs and parents will love. It's the NASA Kid's Club. This site is packed with kid-friendly information. Kids can take a virtual field trip to NASA and play educational games. Happy and Safe Surfing!
