Website

Kids can spend days on the internet without getting bored, and this interactive website is a safe place for them to spend this time. Mostly easy to navigate, however, younger users might benefit from a more obvious way to get to the preschool area from the homepage. One cool feature for older kids is the video mash-up: here you choose clips of dialogue, sound effects, transitions, and actions to create your own animated short which can then be posted and shared with others. For preschoolers, the flash based game 'Princess Patty’s Post Office' is a colorful learning tool where kids can write, design, and then print letters to send to their family and friends. Despite the host of the preschool section, who looks like a glob of slime, but introduces herself as “Canada”, this site is bookmarkable for kids of all ages and interests. *****
