Roblox Launches Family Zone to Help Parents Explore the Platform with Their Children

Today we’re launching Family Zone, a game built by Roblox and developer MindTrust to teach parents and caregivers about the platform. Family Zone fosters co-play between children and their parents and facilitates conversations about digital safety in an entertaining way. 

It’s designed to bridge the gap between generations, giving parents a fun, safe, and active way to co-play and bond with their kids in the digital world. In the game, parents and children play together to learn platform basics, like how to control an avatar in a 3D space and how to set and adjust parental controls. They can also learn about broader online safety topics, designed to boost digital literacy on sites beyond Roblox. 

We built Family Zone because the best way to learn about Roblox is to play on Roblox. While most parents play online games, many are still unfamiliar with Roblox’s games and settings, which may limit their ability to apply parental controls in a fully informed way. Family Zone is designed to help support ongoing dialogue between parents and children, with a level of understanding that comes from firsthand experience. 

Family Zone flips the traditional learning dynamic. Children guide their parents’ first steps on the platform, demonstrating how to move around and explore a digital space. When parents follow their child’s lead, they can play with full control over avatar movements and navigation. 

Family Zone empowers parents with interactive lessons around safety and Roblox’s industry-leading safety guardrails and features. We guide parents through our robust parental controls, which allow those with linked accounts to set screen-time limits, manage spending, choose whom their child connects with, and manage what games they can play. We offer rewards, such as exclusive avatar items, for players who complete in-game tutorials, and provide families with a variety of age-appropriate experiences.

We’re working with global safety experts and leading organizations to design additional modules accessible through Family Zone that cover critical topics such as scam prevention, bullying, and strategies to identify and avoid predatory behavior. For example, we are working with Koko, a leading mental health nonprofit, as well as Playerthree and leading researchers at the Lab for Scalable Mental Health at Northwestern University to design a game to help kids and teens develop resilience in the face of bullying.

Family Zone will continue to add new educational content and co-play opportunities where families can enjoy new experiences on Roblox together.

TCL Super-QD MiniLED: The Technology Behind the New Name

 TCL today introduces Super-QD MiniLED（SQD-MiniLED), marking not just a new name, but a meaningful step forward in display innovation. Built on TCL’s continued leadership in Mini LED technology, SQD MiniLED brings together more precise light control, richer color performance, and a more refined viewing experience.

 This upgrade is backed by TCL’s strong global market performance. According to Omdia, TCL ranked No.1 globally in shipment market share for 75-inch-and-above TV sets in 2025, No.1 in global Mini LED TV shipment market share in 2025, and No.1 in global Google TV shipment market from 2021 to 2025.

 

"TCL's mission has always been to make advanced technology accessible while continuing to push the boundaries of what display products can do. Whether in the home, or wearable devices, we see our display products as the interface between people and the digital world.” said Daniel Sun, Chief Technology Officer at TCL Industries.

 

At the core of SQD MiniLED are three key technology advancements.

 

First, Precise Dimming enhances backlight control through upgraded light-emitting chips, next-generation micro-lens technology, reduced halo interference, micro-OD design, and advanced light control algorithms. The result is higher brightness, better uniformity, improved dark-scene performance, smoother motion, and a slimmer TV profile.

 

Second, Super QLED takes color performance further with 33% wider color gamut, 17% higher color purity, and 45% blue light energy optimization. This delivers richer colors, purer expression, and a more comfortable viewing experience.

Third, the Ultra Color Filter improves color filtering precision with upgraded materials and a refined process developed over five years. With particle sizes smaller than 5 nanometers, it helps reduce color impurities and restore colors more accurately on screen.

 

Among TCL’s flagship innovations, the TCL X11L — the World’s First SQD-Mini LED Flagship — stands as the ultimate embodiment of SQD-MiniLED technology. At CES 2026, it received the Innovative Display Technology Gold Award at the GTB Awards, a respected global consumer electronics honor founded by International Data Group (IDG) and supported by IDC.

 

As the global TV market continues to shift toward larger screens and higher picture quality expectations, TCL remains committed to leading the next generation of display innovation. More than a naming upgrade, SQD-MiniLED represents TCL’s next step in redefining what premium TV can deliver.

The New Safety Talk: Preparing Children for Online Risks

 

Every morning, parents send their children off to school with reminders to behave, and a familiar instruction: Mag-ingat ka.

Today, that reminder must extend to the digital world. Whenever children go online to study, play, watch videos, or chat with friends, they may encounter suspicious links, fake giveaways, hacked accounts, online strangers, cyberbullying, misinformation, and manipulated content.

The internet offers many opportunities to learn, create, and connect. But it can also expose children to suspicious links, fake giveaways, hacked accounts, online strangers, cyberbullying, misinformation, and manipulated content.

 

Just as in the physical world, parents need to ensure that children enter and engage with digital spaces that are age-appropriate and child-friendly. Before letting children go online and access apps, parents must check and enable available parental controls, privacy settings, content restrictions, and other safety features to reduce risks to children.

Teach children to spot the warning signs

Online risks do not always look dangerous at first glance.

 

They may appear as a message from a classmate asking for a password, an offer of free game credits, a viral video presented as fact, or a friendly stranger inviting a child to continue chatting privately.

 

Some messages create pressure by claiming an account will be suspended, a prize will expire, or someone needs urgent help. Others may come from fake or hacked accounts that look familiar enough to earn a child’s trust.

 

This is why children need more than a list of rules. They need a simple habit to use whenever something online feels unusual: Pause, Check, and Tell.

 

Pause before clicking or replying

Children are naturally curious, especially when a message promises free game currency, prizes, exclusive content, or access to something popular.

Teach them to pause before clicking a link, opening a file, downloading an app, replying to an unfamiliar account, or sharing information.

They should also avoid acting on messages that try to frighten, pressure, or excite them. Scammers often rely on urgency to keep people from thinking carefully.

A helpful family rule is simple: when a message says “act now,” pause and think first.

 

Check the person, message, and source

Children should learn that not everything online is as it seems.

A message may display the name or photo of someone they know but still come from a fake or compromised account. A video may look convincing but may have been edited or generated using artificial intelligence. A viral post may also present opinion, fiction, or incomplete information as fact.

Encourage children to ask, "Who sent this? Do I know this person in real life? Why are they asking for private information? Does the link or account look unusual? Is the information reported by a credible source? Could the photo, audio clip, or video have been altered?”

Checking does not require advanced technical knowledge. It begins with slowing down and questioning what they see.

 

Tell a trusted adult when something feels wrong

Children should know they can approach a parent, teacher, or trusted adult when something online makes them feel confused, pressured, threatened, embarrassed, or uncomfortable.

They should also be encouraged to speak up even if they have already clicked a suspicious link, replied to a stranger, or shared something they regret.

Fear of punishment can lead children to hide mistakes, which may give scammers, bullies, or online strangers more opportunity to continue contacting or manipulating them.

Parents can build trust by responding calmly, focusing first on the child’s safety, and solving the problem together. A child who knows they will be heard is more likely to ask for help early.

 

Cases or suspected cases of child abuse, exploitation, or other threats to a child’s safety may be reported to the MAKABATA Helpline 1383, the government’s national hotline for concerns involving children. 

 

Finding support in an online village

Raising children in the digital age can feel overwhelming, especially as online threats continue to evolve.

Parents may encounter new scams, unfamiliar apps, AI-generated content, and online behaviors they did not experience growing up. They do not have to navigate these challenges alone.

Since 2022, PLDT Home’s Online Alerto has provided Filipino families with a space to exchange experiences, learn about emerging digital threats, and discover practical ways to build safer online habits at home.

The community helps parents learn from real-life situations, share warnings about scams and suspicious online activity, and become more confident in guiding their children.

Parents cannot keep children entirely away from the digital world. The internet is already part of how they learn, communicate, relax, and prepare for the future.

What parents can do is give them the habits they need to recognize danger and respond wisely.

Before they click, reply, share, or trust, remind them to Pause, Check, and Tell.

It can help children explore the online world with greater confidence, caution, and care.

Be part of the conversation and learn more about protecting your family online. Join the Online Alerto Facebook community at facebook.com/groups/onlinealerto.ph.

Bring Westeros Home for the House of the Dragon Season 3 Premiere

 Transform your living room into Westeros with PLDT Home Fiber Unli All Plan 2499, which comes with an HBO Max standard subscription for your home entertainment among other inclusions!

 

The battle for the Iron Throne has never been more intense. With House of the Dragon Season three promising to deliver more jaw-dropping drama and dragon action, fans across the country are back at it – gathering every week to witness the fate of Westeros.

 

Whether you’re firmly Team Black or Team Green, or just here for the absolute chaos of legendary dragons, watching the drama unfold deserves a proper ritual. You can’t just passively scroll through your phone while the Targaryens tear their family apart; you need a fully immersive setup.

 

Ready to host a viewing session for your family and friends – or just to treat yourself to a cinematic solo binge? Make it epic with the ultimate House of the Dragon watch-party checklist we’ve put together here!

 

1. Keep Fire & Blood close by

Keeping track of shifting alliances, royal bloodlines, and dragon lore with a copy of George R.R. Martin’s Fire & Blood displayed on your coffee table – a conversation starter as much as it is the ultimate companion for every episode.

 

2. Indulge in an inspired feast

You can’t summon the strength of a dragon rider on an empty stomach. Skip the usual chips and dip for a themed menu that feels fit for a Red Keep banquet. Try "Dragon’s Breath" chicken wings, which are spicy, glazed chicken wings that bring the heat. Or what about ordering charcoal-crust pizzas to give that freshly blasted-by-Balerion look?

 

For drinks, try concocting a Steel Elixir, which would be a deep red berry mocktail or a smoky dark roast iced coffee served in pewter mugs or chalices.

 

3. Set the mood with ambient lighting

Use smart LED light strips set to deep crimson or green, depending on who you are rooting for. Light some amber or cedar-scented candles to get that rustic, inspired aroma going.

4. Collect House of the Dragon figures

Prove your superfan status by adorning your living spaces with Funko Pop! figures of your favorite House of the Dragon characters. It’s a great way to keep the vibe going before the episodes start streaming and long after the end credits roll.
