Netsmartz.org- teaching children about interent safety

     Netsmartz.org    is a webstie for parents and educators to help them teach  children and students the importnace of being safe online.This has lots of  links , ideas, videos discussion guides , handouts, etc for parents and educators   to help   them educate thier children and students l about the safe use of the internet
   NetSmartz is an interactive and educational program of the National Center for Missing and Exploited children.  It consists of age appropriate resources  for students 5 to 17 to be used by parents, and educators.  There are  many resources here  which include videos, games, lesson plans, activity cards, and presentations.
     The programs are  both educational and entertaining. My students love the NS teens and go back  to replay the games and look at the comics.  If you poke around you will find something you can use with your own children or students.

   Did anyone  find anything similar?  I am constantly on the look out for more sites like this that have excellent content for use with the students.
