Thinkuknow have produced activities and worksheets, each corresponding to a video or story focusing on a different issue within online safety. The issues covered within these worksheets and activities include: sharing pictures online, being kind online, messaging online and gaming.

Each activity sheet introduces a topic, sometimes related to an animation or story, and provides age-specific questions and activities about a certain issue. These activities are designed to give children a healthy understanding about online dangers and how to safely, and positively, use the internet.
