Safe Net Surfing

The mission of the Idaho 4-H Program is to help youth acquire knowledge, life skills and attitudes that enhance life.

The internet is a wonderful tool to do research, if utilized properly.  The purpose of this page is to help educate youth, parents, and teachers about surfing the web safely.


 

A very special thank you to Mrs. McVey and her students at Green Mountain Central School District in Vermont for their wonderful e-mail with great suggestions of additional resources to add to this page!
