Halloween may be our favorite spooky time of year, but scammers are hiding in plain sight all year round.
Three tips for teaching kids to spot a scam:
1. Don’t Take the Candy! If something seems too good to be true—like a free Roblox code or prize—it probably is. Teach kids to pause before they tap.
2. Ghostbusters Rule: Tell an Adult. If a message, pop-up, or link feels weird, the safest move is to call in backup. Encourage kids to come to you right away.
3. Spot the Costume. Scammers often pretend to be someone you trust. Look closely—does the email look off? Is the message urgent and strange? Help kids learn to recognize red flags.
“This Year, I Will…”
The start of school brings more than just new supplies—it’s a chance to set the tone for the year ahead. That’s why we created our “This Year, I Will…” Bookmark Set, designed to help kids build the future-ready skills they need to succeed in school and life.
THREE TIPS FOR BUILDING FUTURE-READY HABITS AT HOME:
1) Choose a Trait Together. Talk with your child about which bookmark trait fits their goals this year.
2) Keep It Visible. It’s a daily visual reminder of the kind of person they’re working to become.
3) Celebrate Progress, Not Perfection. When your child shows growth—like taking initiative or managing money—call it out. These small wins build lifelong confidence.
