The story

🦊 The wolf’s new trick: this fable is about Weak vs. strong safety habits. Read along to learn how to spot it.

Three little pigs each built a way of staying safe online. The first used a password of straw β€” β€œ1234”. The second used a password of sticks β€” his own name. A tricky wolf huffed and puffed, and blew both of them down in a moment.

But the third pig built with brick. Her password was long and silly and known only to her. She asked a grown-up before trying new apps, and she was always kind in her messages. The wolf huffed, and puffed, and could not get in.

Moral: Strong habits keep you safe when trouble comes knocking.

In real life: Build with brick β€” use strong, secret passwords; ask before downloading or signing up; and be kind online. Sturdy habits protect you when the wolf comes calling.

πŸ’¬ Talk about it together: Is your password made of straw, sticks, or brick? With a grown-up, how could you make it sturdier?
