Kavi Asks First

Kavi the owl draws a funny picture of a friend and nearly posts it 📱 — then stops. "Wait — this is my friend's face. Is it mine to share?" Kavi asks the friend first: "May I post this?" The friend says yes 🙂. "Keep private things private," hoots Kavi, "and always ask before you use someone else's photo, drawing or words!"

A peek inside

Is your home address something to keep private, or OK to share online?
Ask: could this let a stranger find me? A home address tells someone exactly where I live, so it is private.

Try this at home: Name two things about you that you should keep private online.

💬

Questions parents ask

+What does 'protect privacy and ask permission' mean for kids?

It means two things. First, keep private things private — like your home address, phone number, password and the name of your school — and do not post them. Second, ask permission before you use or share something that belongs to another person, like their photo, drawing or words.

+What should a child keep private online?

Private things are facts that could let a stranger find you or pretend to be you: your home address, your phone number, your password, and the name of your school. Favourite colours, games and animals, and your own drawings, are fine to share.

+Why should children ask permission before posting a friend's photo?

A photo, drawing or video of another person belongs to that person too. Posting it without asking can embarrass them or share something they wanted private. Asking 'May I share this?' and waiting for a clear yes respects their privacy.

+What age is this 'Ask Permission' lesson for?

It is a Stage 4 lesson for roughly ages 8–9 in KAVI Academy's AI-literacy track. It builds on earlier 'people first' and online-safety ideas, using a story, sorting and ordering games with light reading.
