These are sites that I have found to be kid friendly.  There are plenty of "games" on the internet.  All of these sites I have selected for their educational value.  I also tried to select sites without pop-up ads. The internet is always changing, so please check these sites out with your child first.  Please let me know if you find something inappropriate or if the link is broken. I suggest keeping the computer in the living room or kitchen where you can monitor your child while on the internet.  Also limit their computer time or use it as a reward where they can earn more time for chores, good behavior, etc.  I hope your family will enjoy these sites!     -Mrs. Ross
