Talk about what they're watching and where it takes place. Ask your children how they would communicate with other people. Encourage them to write letters to relatives and friends. They may be able to get pen pals through school or a pen pal association. Talk with your children about the Information Superhighway.
Many schools now have computers in classrooms, and many households have personal computers.
However, you don't have to have a computer in your home to understand the idea of the Internet or the Information Superhighway. Check at your local public library for interesting reading materials and, if possible, go on-line with your child. You may be able to get computer access through the library or your child's school.
