My 10 year old daughter loves spelling and math quiz websites. But I am very strict about what she looks at. There are some very weird 'kid sites' out there. Can anyone please advise me of a site that is educational and 'safe'.
We live in New Zealand where we use the metric system, so if anyone can help I would very much appreciate their advice.
A few years ago at a hospital book fair, I bought a book entitled "The Internet Kids & Family Yellow Pages", 2nd edition. It is really just that: a reference for topics which are alphabetically listed, along with a paragraph describing each website. This book is great! (I am very strict also) It was published in 1997 and has probably been replaced by a newer version. The author is Jean Armour Polly and in looking up her information for you, I see she also has a website: <http://www.netmom.com/> the publishing company for the book is: Osborne/Mc Graw-Hill 2600 Tenth Street Berkeley, California 94710 U.S.A.
Of course a pop up blocker helps as well so your daughter doesn't end up where she shouldn't be. Good luck
dear Ang try the british BBC education websites, they are perfectly safe and very good. Also metric!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/learning/ love [another] Ang
