An online friend’s gift

When someone online offers gifts or asks things

Level 4: Staying safe with money · from age 9 · 3 minutes · 3 Kesho Stars

The story

Kiprop plays a game online with someone called “Coach_Pro”. After a week, Coach_Pro says: “You’re so good. I’ll buy you a skin. Just don’t tell your parents, it’s our secret.”

The big idea

People online are not always who they say they are. A gift from a stranger often comes with a request later.

Ask at home

Tell your child they will never be in trouble for telling you about someone online who made them feel uneasy.

The full lesson, with its questions and Kesho Stars, is in the myKesho kids app.
