Better Internet for Kids

Children love stickers, which is why we have once again prepared Sejfko stickers with useful tips for safer use of the internet and digital devices. Sejfko stickers have been part of SAFE.SI materials for many years. In 2026, they were refreshed with a redesigned look and updated advice adapted to today’s online habits of children.

As part of the Safer Internet Day (SID) 2026 campaign, the Safe.si awareness centre prepared materials to support safer online shopping. A checklist for determining whether a purchase from an online store is safe can be printed and used to evaluate online shops. It is intended for teenagers and parents, helping them assess whether an item is worth buying and whether the online store is trustworthy or potentially a scam.

As part of the Safer Internet Day (SID) 2026 campaign, the Safe.si awareness centre prepared materials to support safer online shopping. With three different interactive quizzes tailored to specific age groups of teenagers, they can be used to test knowledge of the risks of online shopping:

On Safer Internet Day (SID), 10 February 2026, the Safe.si awareness centre organised a webinar for parents. Children, especially teenagers, are exposed to advertising and various purchasing incentives while using the internet. In this way, they often enter the world of consumerism and online shopping, whether they intend to or not, without being fully familiar with it.

This study explores the experiences of children aged 11–16 with Discord, loot boxes, and gaming influencers. The aim is to give adults insight into these parts of children’s online lives and to highlight how we can best support them in navigating this world safely and confidently.

The survey is based on responses from 1,785 children aged 11–16 across Denmark. Data was collected by Epinion in December 2025, through a web-based questionnaire distributed to parents, who were asked to let their child complete the survey.

Key findings:

This initiative is aimed at young people themselves, as well as their families and educators. It provides a range of accessible, easy-to-understand resources, including blog articles, infographics, visual content, podcasts, and an online workshop for classroom use.

As a general overview, the resource discusses what AI is and how it influences the daily lives of minors and their environment. It also explores its main challenges and opportunities, and the different guidelines for using this technology responsibly.

On Thursday, 26 March 2026, the Spanish National Cybersecurity Institute (INCIBE) celebrated Safer Internet Day 2026 with an interactive online workshop, “Sure! Here’s a suggestion. What would you do?”, which was attended online by hundreds of classes from primary and secondary schools across Spain.

This 45-minute lesson plan is designed for students in grades 1–4 and focuses on helping children understand the power of words, both offline and online. Through interactive activities, students learn to recognise how words can affect other people’s feelings, transform negative expressions into positive ones, and understand that hurtful language on the internet can have real emotional consequences.

This lesson plan is designed for students in Grades 4–6 and helps them understand what cyberbullying is and how it differs from teasing. Through discussion and interactive activities, students explore how hurtful online behaviour can affect others, learn when it is important to speak to a trusted adult, and develop empathy and responsible ways to support a classmate who may be experiencing bullying.
