Hello there…

I've been lurking this forum for a while as a guest - but finally decided to register. A little off-topic but I have a 8 year old boy and a 5 year old little girl who are dying to browse online.

I've spent hours researching the internet and besides TippyTales.com, I really can't find any other educational site online. Besides the music & games, they have a cool book creator where my kids develop their own books. I swear it entices them to read...not joking!!

Anyway, was wondering what other parents are introducing their kids to or if we're all stuck on the same site?!!!

Jeez, after all I've seen online, the internet is the last thing I would want my kids to be casually browsing. The internet is similar to the tree of knowledge of good and evil found in Genesis. You can find the answer to anything on the internet. It can be a very good tool or a completely evil one. Best get a content blocker ;).

Anyway, fun sites I browsed as a child:

yeah, I would definitely say go for the content blocker, and remove it when your children are older. When I was younger, I enjoyed cartoonnetwork.com, Disney.com and neopets.com. :)
