School holidays, children at home, we who have 'caught' some days off, and what to do so they don't get bored? Have you already gone shopping, visited nativity scenes, attended the museum's interactive exhibition and are you tired of going to the park?
Then it's time to stay at home enjoying free time and doing crafts, or watching TV, or going over school work. We propose that you all learn to surf the Internet in a safe and different way. From the Internet Security Office (OSI) they have thought about your children, and you. It occurred to them that they could offer some educational resource that besides being attractive to them can help you in your internet browsing, taking advantage of those leisure time they have these days.
The "Color the characters on the web" campaign aims to establish a basis for the little ones to understand that the use of the computer and the Internet is something positive, but that it is necessary to take a series of precautions to avoid unwanted consequences.
Given the the early introduction of children in the digital world is increasingly frequent, it is based on the fact that children have already started using the computer and have taken their first steps on the Internet or are about to do so.
Coloring the OSI characters, they can learn internet security recommendations, since the drawings have a direct message about what they 'should' or 'should not do on the Web.
In addition to the images, a tutorial is also provided, in which you will find the reason for each recommendation, so that you can explain to children in a slightly more detailed way the possible dangers with which they can be found on the Internet but follow some tips
Activity It is designed to develop during the Christmas period since the characters contain messages and elements related to Christmas. However, there is no problem in carrying out this activity at any other time.
Families can also take as reference the information published in the section of children from five to eight years of the OSI Minors website.
