How to use the Kid-Safe QR Card Generator

How this QR code works

This code stores the destination URL, and the card around it carries the safety message: ask a grown-up first. The child-facing label says what the card is for, and the adult note tells the grown-up what has been checked. The card does not make a destination safe — the grown-up who checks the link does.

Using this card in a classroom or at home

Print the card with the label in large type and the permission message at the top, where a child sees it before the code. The grown-up should open the destination themselves first, check it is what the label says, and stay nearby while the child uses it. Never hand a child a code to an unchecked destination.

Testing before you print

Print the card at its real size and check a child can read the label and the permission message without help. Open the destination yourself and confirm it matches the label, with no ads, sign-ups, or links leading away from it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens when someone scans this QR code?

Scanning opens the destination URL. The card tells the child to ask a grown-up first, and the grown-up should open the link themselves and check it before the child uses it.

Does this card make a link safe for children?

No. The card is a reminder and a label, not a safety filter. The grown-up who checks the destination is what makes it safe.

What should the grown-up check?

Open the destination yourself first. Confirm it matches the label, and check for ads, sign-ups, chats, or links leading away from the activity.

Can I print this QR code on classroom cards?

Yes. Print the label and the permission message in large type, keep the code at least 2 cm wide, and keep the quiet zone clear.
