Richie Roo and the internet

In cooperation with a major Internet Service Provider in Latvia, a set of materials was developed with the slogan "When you use the internet, remember about safety!". It helps 4-7-year-old children, guided by their educators and parents, to learn about safe and responsible use of the internet. 

The singing bear Richie Roo is a superstar, giving concerts all over Latvia. All pre-school children know and love him. The Latvian SIC launched a cooperation to invent songs and videos about internet safety. As part of the campaign, the educational resources "Richie Roo and the internet" have been developed - videos, creative tasks and materials for educators. 

14 videos cover various essential topics for young children who start their journey on the internet: how does the internet work? Is everything real on the internet? Overwhelming use of internet. How to use the internet meaningfully? Cyberbullying. Stranger - danger. Harmful information, etc. Each video is supplemented by 5-10 creative tasks for children to complete together with an educator or parent.
