As we all know, access to the internet by young children should be highly regulated by Educators, Parents and Carers always. However there is one website that all children should be aware of and be given free access to use it with relative freedom and privacy. The Kids Helpline website is specifically designed for access by children aged 5-12, it is brightly coloured and uses images to assist young learners to navigate the page with relative ease and limited assistance from adults. There is a wealth of information available on the page as well as information on how they can talk to someone for assistance.
