This film is part of our Safer Internet Day 2024 campaign resource materials. The film is intended for children aged 7-11 and can be used alongside the Safer Internet Day 2024 education packs for this age group.
It aims to support activities and to kickstart conversations around this year’s theme of change and influence on the internet. The film explores and stimulates discussion around AI, the change children and young people see online and how they are influenced by it.
