Our Top 30 Web Sites For Kids List

In my house I have these little people walking around known also as Generation Z - the generation that has never known a life without computers let alone the Internet and many don’t know a world without mobile phones at least mine don't.


Generation Z is the current label given to those born from 1995 onwards.

So, with techno savvy kids who surf the net for both education and entertainment what web sites can we as moms share with our children to inspire them over the Summer months to keep those brains learning?

The best place to find the Best of the Best websites is to ask other moms so not only did we created our list for you below but we also asked our Twitter MOM Followers and they suggested the following sites:

@Januaryeme my 4 year old loves http://www.starfall.com/ It's a great learn to read site
( This site is also one my Son Caleb uses at school and we will use over the summer)

@mrsdman www.mynoggin.com

@momexperience I love the Webkinz site and www.funbrain.com

@ColoScienceMom Favorite kid websites: www.starfall.com (great for beginner readers) and www.SteveSpanglerScience.com of course!

@heidibutterfly my 4.5 yo loves www.starfall.com he can literally read books there for as long as I permit. Also likes www.pbskids.org and www.mynoggin.com
