Best social media safety books for kids

If your child is regularly using the internet and has started to talk about wanting an Instagram account, then you will like these books about social media safety for kids.

While most social media sites don’t allow children under the age of 13 to join, this is easily sidestepped by lying about your age. Which means that many underage tweens are opening social media accounts with or without their parent’s permission. This is fraught with risk as bullying, trolling, sexting and grooming by sexual predators are common.

So if you want your child to stay safe and to use social media responsibly, the sooner that you start to talk to them the better. Luckily there are some great books about social media safety for kids that will help with starting some conversations about staying safe online. These books will help you to guide your child to use the internet safely and responsibly.

You will only find books in this list that are readily available at bookshops today.

You can find more books about different topics in the main list of Sex Education Books for Children.

And if you find this list a little overwhelming, you might want to look at the age-appropriate list of sex education books.

You’ll find more information about sex education in my Sex Education 101 page.

NOTE: Before passing any book to your child or reading the book with your child, you should read it yourself first. I might think it is a great book for a certain age child or that the information is valuable, but you may disagree. You need to choose books that reflect your values and the messages you want your child to receive.

Which means that inside this website, you’ll find lots of resources to help you with talking to your child about porn as well as love, sex, relationships and growing up.
