Launch the first Kids in Cyber book and help 7–13 year-olds stay safe and confident online through an exciting chapter story.

by Megan Popescu in Ayr, South Ayrshire, United Kingdom

Hi, I'm Megan, Founder of Kids in Cyber. As a parent and advocate for early digital education, I created Riley’s New Console: Social Engineering to give children a relatable, age-appropriate introduction to the challenges of being online.

The idea came from a simple realisation: kids are navigating technology earlier than ever, but the support to help them do so safely and confidently just isn’t keeping up.

This engaging chapter book follows Riley, a tech-curious girl who receives her first game console. But what starts as excitement turns into confusion when her profile is compromised by someone pretending to be a friend. It’s a gentle but important introduction to a topic that affects kids every day, without being scary or preachy.

This campaign will help us: 

✅ Design and create the cover for the book.

✅ Prepare for Print and publish the first run of Riley’s New Console
✅ Share the book with families through school fairs and community events
✅ Proceeds from the book will help us develop our Kids in Cyber learning platform. A digital space designed to grow with children and support their journey from tech introduction to confident, responsible use.

We're not just publishing a book we're starting a movement to put cyber and tech education right where it belongs: alongside Math & English.

Back this campaign to help make that vision a reality.
