Social Media Basics for Parents // Common Sense Education
What is social media and why are my kids constantly on it? What do I need to be aware of to keep them safe, especially when adults are not around? Join Common Sense to learn the basics of social media - we’ll cover the key differences between Snapchat, TikTok and Instagram and why kids love them. You’ll leave with manageable tips and strategies for staying on top of the latest trends because you can’t be there all the time.
