A new cartoon show can
help kids enjoy learning
how to handle digital me-
dia.
Critical Thinking, Col-
laboration and Teamwork,
Empathy, and Perspective
Taking—and integrates a
STEAM (science, technol-
ogy, engineering, the arts
and math) curriculum.
Five ways to help your
child become a Digital
Citizen:
1. The most impor-
tant thing is to model
good behavior. This means
think about your media
use and what your chil-
dren see you doing.
2. Find times when
the whole family has no
devices — dinner table,
walks to school, hikes,
sport games. The most
important thing is that
they learn there are times
that are screen free—and
that it is essential to build
these into our day.
3. Pick your battles.
If you don’t want your
teens to “unfriend” you or
even worse create anoth-
er page you won’t know
about, don’t ask about ev-
ery transgression and let a
few things slide. Try saying
a few positive things each
day about their media use.
4. Live where they
live. Remember, it’s not
just about social media…
it’s also about what they’re
watching, reading, and lis-
tening to. Common Sense
Media is an amazing
source for comprehensive
information.
5. Look for teach-
able moments in the real
world. You can use things
that happen in real life to
create stories that may
resonate for teens. Bring
them up in conversation.
Often, kids’ ears will perk
up when they hear these
stories.

(NAPSA)—Why
is
“Dot.,” a new original ani-
mated series on Sprout
from Industrial Brothers
in association with The
Jim Henson Company and
the Canadian Broadcast-
ing Corporation, so timely
and important? In 2017,
10 years after the iPhone
was introduced, mobile
technology has rapidly
changed the way we inter-
act with media. Children
as young as 2 use tablets
and
phones—swiping,
tapping and viewing to
gain access to content. For
today’s youngest digital
natives, digital tools are
an integral part of their
lives, used in fl uid ways to
explore their worlds. Tech-
nology is not SEPARATE
but instead a PART of their
lives, an important tool
that helps them play, learn,
socialize and engage.
Mobile
interactive
apps and games provide
ample opportunities for
children to move their
bodies, learn, create digital
masterpieces and explore
everything and anything
that captures their imagi-
nation. At the same time,
in today’s 24/7 digital en-
vironment, children can
use media to make impul-
sive choices, view material
that is not age appropriate
or communicate inappro-
priately. The benefi ts are
great but the risks must be
mitigated.
When The Jim Henson
Company asked me to be
an advisor on preschool
TV show “Dot.,” I enthu-
siastically agreed. The
show’s creators wanted
to embed digital citizen-
ship lessons into each epi-
sode to help guide both
children and parents to
responsibly navigate tech-
nology.
The hope is that
through Dot’s experi-
ences, children learn to
harness the power of this
interactive and informa-
tional medium in the most
productive and pro-social
manner. By starting to
teach these digital citizen-
ship skills early, parents
can ensure that their chil-
dren learn best practices
and develop the skills they
need to take advantage of
the many opportunities
that technology and me-
dia offer us.
