Interesting list.  I can't wait to explore these sites with my son.  I'm trying to make learning fun again for him.  Kindergarten has been very tedious.  Our school's curriculum is demanding and he has a learning disability. 

Thanks, Lori

I'm beginning to be amazed at how rich the internet is when it comes to children's content.  We are really moving from traditional books, paper and pen to keyboard and laptops.  Sometimes I wonder whether are we heading to the right direction.  For eg, will you buy an entire volume of encyclopedia for your kids? or would you train them to search the web/wikipedia for such info?
