Are you AO-K
‘Are you AO-K’ also covers the relationship between social media and mental well-being as well as cyber-bullying. To show the children how they can manage their screen time, they will discuss amongst themselves what they enjoy most about playing with either their friends or siblings. This will help them understand that in person interactions are just as enjoyable as connecting online.
