Creating strong passwords is essential to protecting your accounts. Getting your children involved at an early age sets a great habit for life. Over at the Wall Street Journal, they suggest making privacy into a game.
The game started with using Diceware for passwords and expanded from there:
Harriet loved building strong passwords. Soon I began paying her to build passwords for me too. Eventually she branched out and started selling strong passwords to friends and family members for $1 each.
Excited by her successful business venture, Harriet soon became curious about some of the other experiments I've tried to reclaim my online privacy. She loved the fake identity that I created for some of my online accounts ("Ida Tarbell," borrowing the name of a turn-of-the-century, muckraking journalist) and decided to use a fake name for her online accounts as well.
