Safe Search & Research

Why Not just Google It?

Safe search engines are safer to use because they have filters to reduce inappropriate content that can pop up.  Mrs. Holdaway recommends using these safe search engines and links when searching for information on the Internet. However, no matter what, kids and adults should always be cautious when searching, since no filter can screen out everything. 

Helpful Searching Tips:

• Be specific - never just search for a single word. Use at least 2 or 3 key words or details to make your search as specific as possible. 

• Try making a search phrase in the form of a question. 

• Add "for kids" at the end of the search phrase to get kid friendly results. 

• Avoid clicking on ads and sponsored links.
