When parents and guardians become teachers: tools to help students at home.

Build strong relationships with students and their families by giving them the resources that learners need to thrive.

Explore Google for Families

We know that you want to connect with families and guardians and share more about the technology that you use with students. But it can be hard to find the time when you're also teaching, troubleshooting and navigating the technology yourself. That's why we've created several resources for you to share with families to help them manage Google technology at home.

Make technology work for parents and guardians

On our Families website, parents and guardians can learn more about navigating technology with tips on the latest apps, parental controls, online safety resources and more. We've even provided enriching online activities that families can do together.

Share resources to help families and guardians get the most from Google technology

Our Tech Toolkit for Families and Guardians breaks down classroom technologies with videos, a glossary, best practices for family engagement and FAQ. And our Guardian's Guides explain how teachers and students are using Google products, including Chromebooks and Google Workspace for Education.

Help families to manage children's devices and create healthy digital habits

The Family Link app lets parents and guardians manage their child's Google Account and device. They can add a school account to be supervised as well, and set ground rules for students while they work in Google Workspace for Education.

Parents and guardians want to be more involved in their children's education, especially now that so much schoolwork is happening at home and students are spending more time online. Give families the tips and tools that they need to help keep students learning.
