ChatLicense teams up with DoorleesExpress

News

30 June 2026

Strong language skills are a key part of creating a safer and better online world. Reading not only opens up the (online) world to children but also boosts their self-confidence. In turn, that online world can greatly contribute to a language-rich environment at home. That is why the Dutch VoorleesExpress Foundation and ChatLicense are joining forces again this year! All DoorleesExpress participants receive free access to ChatLicense.

ChatLicense is a digital “driver’s license” for children venturing into the online world independently for the first time. Through a game, children learn to navigate topics such as cyberbullying, fake news, influencers, and screen time. Parents receive practical explanations and conversation starters via the Parent Guide. The free subscription is available to all DoorleesExpress participants.
