Take a breath. You don’t have to tap or reply right away.

A little pause.
A big adventure.
A curious octopus. A mysterious prize.
And a little help from someone he trusts.
You’re one of the crew.

The Free Prize Mystery
A prize message sounds exciting. But is it really what it seems? Join Cyro, Maya, and Nana for a seaside story about slowing down and checking together.
Talk about the story
What made the prize sound exciting? Who helped Cyro? What could you do if an unexpected message appeared?
Remember: you can ask for help even after you’ve clicked.
YOUR TURN, LITTLE EXPLORER
What would you do?
Try a few choices with Cyro. There’s always room to learn.
PRACTICE WITH CYRO
A message says, “You won a free prize!”
You weren’t expecting a prize. What could you do next?
You don’t have to figure it out alone.
2. Ask
Tell a trusted adult what you saw. It’s okay to ask for help.
3. Check together
Let your trusted adult help check the message another way.
OFF THE SCREEN, INTO AN ADVENTUREEight arms.
Eight arms.
Endless imagination.
Make a little shadow show together, just like Cyro. What can your hands become?
Let’s make a shadow show
- Ask a grown-up to set up a battery-powered light and a light-colored sheet or wall.
- Keep the floor clear and leave the light where your grown-up places it.
- Try a bird, a bunny, or your own sea creature with your hands.
- Tell a tiny story together. Silly voices welcome!
A NOTE FOR GROWN-UPSOnline safety starts
Online safety starts
with a conversation.
“I see adults getting cybersecurity training at work. After building a website for a nonprofit teaching older adults online safety, I wondered: why aren’t we starting earlier?”
Cydeavor Kids introduces online safety through stories children can enjoy with you. Episode 1 focuses on unexpected messages, pausing, and getting help from a trusted adult.
Make it a conversation, not a test
Ask what your child noticed. Listen without blame. Remind them they can come to you even if they already clicked or shared something.
