Countdown to BLASTOFF!!
Activity: When teaching your tween to Pause Before Posting, remind them that online interactions need a “systems check” before being sent into orbit!
Is your child a future astronaut? Make a game out of Pausing and create a ‘systems check’ for their texts or posts. You might say things like:
- 5! Route is mapped out and the spelling looks good!
- 4! Seatbelts fastened and I’ve read it 4 ways!
- 3! Radio coms are working and there are no 3D’s present!
- 2! The weather is clear and so is my message!
- 1! Ready to lift off, and I feel good hitting send!
