Today is World Book Day – Celebrate with Digiduck!

1 March 2018

Sharing a story with your child is such a special experience, and for World Book Day 2018 (Thursday 1st March) we have just the story for you!

The internet is an amazing resource, both for children and adults, but learning to navigate the online world can be hard at times, and mistakes are sometimes made.

Children need gentle guidance, and support from those that they trust, to be able to develop their online skills and safety knowledge, to get the best out of the internet and all that technology has to offer.

The adventures of Digiduck

When Digiduck anonymously receives a picture of one of his friends looking silly, he is keen to share the joke. Will the help and advice of Wise_Owl (from Digiduck’s favourite website the ‘Family Farmyard’) influence his decision? You’ll have to read to find out!

Printed copies of Digiduck’s Big Decision are available in A4 size to order from our online shop and contain questions for discussion with children aged 3-7, plus advice for teachers, parents and carers at the end.

Alternatively you can read our online ebook, or download the PDF version if you want to print your own copy. If you speak another language, Digiduck has been made available in Spanish and Norwegian too!

Remember to tweet images of you enjoying reading the story to @childnet so we can share them and enjoy the tales of Digiduck.
