Explorer Quest: Family Privacy Map

On the weekend, the crew draws a big map of the station on butcher paper.

Rocket colors the galley green. "Anyone can hang out here," he says. "Public!"

Raven colors the bunk rooms yellow. "Crew only. Trusted."

Nova draws a little red box around the logbook cabinet. "Private," she says. "Locked, with a secret code."

Rocket steps back to admire it. "Every place has its own rule. Information is the same way."

Raven smiles. "Now let's help our families draw one."

  1. Privacy protects autonomy, identity and dignity.
  2. It covers freedom from intrusion, limits on being watched and control over your own facts.
  3. Health, location and biometric data can leak or be misused.
  4. Sharing and protecting is a trade-off. Choose on purpose.
  5. Locks are physical security measures. Passwords are digital ones.
◇ FAMILY PRIVACY MAP
On a big sheet of paper, draw three boxes: Public, Trusted and Private.
With your family, write examples of information in each box. Use made-up examples for anything truly private.
Never write a real password or code on the map.
Talk about one trade-off: something your family shares, and what you keep private when you share it.
Agree on one family privacy rule and write it at the bottom.
For a grown-up
This activity is about kinds of information, not real secrets. Please keep real passwords off the paper.
Share how your family decides what to post or share, and why.
Remind your child to ask before using any AI tool or typing personal information anywhere.
