I told her about KidZui.com.
If you want your child to visit excellent educational websites that make absorbing lots of skills and information fun and painless; if you want to spark interests in everything from math, science, art, music, history, geography, math, literature, and anything else you can think of, take a trip to KidZui.com.
KidZui provides lots of free services:
- links to thousands of websites arranged by grade level, kindergarten through sixth, listed by subject and interest categories
- weekly emailed reports of children's online activity and graphs of Internet activity for a 30 day period.
- the ability to add family blogs and the website of your child's school to KidZui
- you can register multiple children on different grade levels and receive reports on each child's Internet activity
- additional services are also available for a nominal fee.
If you have a great website for kids or anything else you'd like to share, leave a comment. I'd love to hear from you.

The KidZui sounds like a great site. I found this one while searching for information about sight words http://www.theschoolbell.com/ and this http://www.kidzone.ws/ site while looking for word families.
There's a lot of information out there. For someone who doesn't know how to use it, I appreciate your help Trish. — Stacy
Trish--I swear by KidZui! The kids still complain about being "controlled", but KidZui offers abundant access to their favorites, as well as websearch and videos. So after awhile at the site, they're so busy that they forget all about it (me!). I felt a little spy-guilt re the oversight reports, but was pleasantly surprised to see that Sophie (8) is spending most of her time on math games. My only complaint is that it seems to run a bit slow. I'm assuming that's because of an extra gateway layer (??). Standing by for any suggestion on that. Otherwise, big thumbs up for KidZui. Also for your terrific blog! Carry on. Please!
