Give a smile
On 7th February 2017 we’re encouraging everyone to make the internet a better place and #giveasmile for Safer Internet Day!
To do this we are asking schools, organisations and individuals to ‘Be the Change’ and help make the internet smile by posting a smiley selfie or emoji!
Whether it’s a positive message in our specially designed emoji, a post filled with smiling emojis, or something more creative, there are lots of ways you can get involved in the #giveasmile campaign. You can:
- Fill our #giveasmile template with your own message and share it on social media: We’ve created our own emoji templates which can be filled with tips and advice for creating a better internet or with positive comments. Download our emoji template here in colour or greyscale. You can also download it here in Welsh.
- Post a selfie of you smiling, or smiling with someone else and send it someone to make them smile!
- Get creative and make your own emoji out of anything you want, including objects and people!
