Our CMO was quoted on Screen Time in Today's Parent:
"When content is designed to keep children hooked, it can train the brain to expect nonstop novelty, which can make slower-paced activities like reading, schoolwork, or even outdoor play feel dull by comparison."

You may not be sending out greeting cards or hosting any get-togethers for Safer Internet Day, but it is a great chance to take stock of what you are doing to keep your kids safe online.
Know what they are up to, have an ongoing dialogue with them, and take advantage of every layer of parental controls - device, app, and external (like Canopy!).
Because they are not growing up in the same world you did. Let's protect them together!

What is Wizz❓

It’s an app that’s been making headlines lately for connecting minors with sexual predators, earning the nickname “Tinder for kids.”

It’s supposed to connect strangers, both teens and adults. The result? A 12-year-old girl meeting up with a supposed 14-year-old boy… only to meet an adult male who SA’d her.

The age verification used to prevent this doesn’t work. This app is not safe!

Make sure this app is not on your children’s devices and follow Canopy for more updates!
