Free cyber resources for children during COVID-19

Free cyber resources for children during COVID-19

Hundreds of thousands of people have been asked to work for home with little information as to when things will be back to normal. Likewise, children are having to stay at home to avoid the spread of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Parents around the world are in the hunt for resources that can entertain and educate their children without breaking the bank or having to go outside.


To help with this burden, the nonprofit Center for Cyber Safety and Education is offering, until the end of April, free access to its Garfield eLearning program. Children ages 6-12 will be able to access all three online lessons (Privacy, Safe Posting and Cyberbullying) during this period at no charge. These fun and engaging Garfield lessons were designed with the help of (ISC)2 members and the creative mind of Jim Davis. The three interactive cartoons will allow unlimited play without ads or in-game purchasing and no chatting options either. Garfield eLearning is compatible with iOS and Android.
