Please post the Pledge and Poster near a computer to remind kids to:

BE COOL
We'll always respect others online and never post anything could be hurtful to someone else.

BE HEARD
If we see anything online that worries us, we'll speak up and tell a parent or trusted adult.

BE SAFE
We'll protect our personal information online and won't share private personal details, like where we live or go to school.

If you go to the Safety section of Club Penguin's site, they have a bunch of really good stuff on online safety.
Since the beginning, Club Penguin's made online safety a priority - we believe kids should know how to stay safe online.

You can go to their Safety page to watch the video, featuring Una from The Saturdays!
Online can be an amazing place is everyone's respectful, speaks up, and stays saef.

Be Cool Online -- Respect others
  • Treat people how you want to be treated
  • Avoid words that might offend others
  • If you wouldn't say it out loud, don't say it online
Club Penguin is Committed to Safety
  • There are filters to help block inappropriate chat
  • There are tons of ways to express yourself
Just like in the real world, your child's online experiences are better when you're aware, curious, and engaged.

Be Aware
  • Do you know all the sites your child visits?
  • Make sure you're comfortable with where your child goes online
  • In your home, designate a common area for your computer
Club Penguin is Committed to Safety
Club Penguin does so much to keep children safe online. Do your part and speak up!
