Click.

Children are exposed to digital media from an early age. Apps, websites, TV, games, and movies: all part of life for most children. But do they know how to interact with these media responsibly and sensibly? This can be tricky. So, it is all the more important to prepare children properly for rapid technological developments. This requires the right knowledge and skills in order to best utilise digital media. And develop general skills - Like critical thinking and conscious action. This enables children to make conscious choices using their own capabilities.

We believe children need support to do the above. Digital media are part of society, now and in the future, and that is why our branches have digital resources, such as tablets. We teach children how to use them in a healthy way. The Click domain focuses on the digital theme in a playful way.

We can learn together
Within the Click domain, children develop their social and communication skills. During the activities, children work with the resources together, learning to cooperate, think critically and solve problems. They also develop their digital skills through gaming, virtual reality and programming. Children are given plenty of space to experiment and explore. Within safe boundaries. For example: the apps, games and websites we use do not have chat options and meet strict privacy rules. There are also plenty of new things to discover and explore, Because we regularly work with resources they are not familiar with from home. In doing so, we will always consider whether the resource is age-appropriate.

Seeing beyond the screen
We show the positive side of technology. To make things extra exciting, we sometimes combine technology with other activities, such as from the Move domain. For instance, we use tablets to encourage children to be active.

Ready for the future
We are committed to children. We enrich and facilitate their development through our services and range of activities, so that they can grow up to be independent, social and capable adults who make a positive contribution to society today and in the future. We encourage children to use digital opportunities safely based on their age and interests. The Click domain allows children to develop their digital and general skills, shows them how the physical world can strengthen the digital world (and vice versa). It also teaches them to use technology in a safe manner.
