Frequent use of digital environments and tools during the pandemic increased the responsibilities of children as well as parents in digital environments. Hence, researching the digital parenting awareness of parents during the pandemic is important. This research aims to evaluate the digital parenting levels of primary school students' parents in terms of different variables. The survey model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the research. Two hundred and five primary school students' parents, who were reached by the convenience sampling method, participated in the study. The study data were collected using the 'Digital Parenting Awareness Scale'. Demographic information of the parents and the scale scores were analysed descriptively, and the differentiation according to different variables was analysed inferentially. According to the research findings, both setting negative examples and efficient use of digital tools by parents were found to be high during the pandemic, while digital neglect and risk protection levels were found to be moderate. It was concluded that digital parenting levels differ according to variables such as gender, number of children and socioeconomic status.
