Often, parents think of the Internet a dangerous place for kids, and it can be.

Before you ban your child from the Internet altogether, consider some of these worthwhile online resources for kids.<\/p>\n

### Great Websites for Kids<\/a><\/p>\n

Sponsored by the American Library Association<\/a>, Great Websites for Kids is a one-stop-shop for kids looking for a little fun and learning on the Web. Featuring hundreds of kid-friendly sites, this resource allows kids or parents to filter websites by subject area including animals, the arts, literature & languages, and more, or view popular and top-rated sites. Although an age filter would be a nice addition, Great Websites for Kids is definitely a \u201cgreat\u201d place for kids to start their Web adventures.<\/p>\n

###\u00a0Club Penguin<\/a><\/p>\n

Club Penguin is a game site and social network for kids all rolled into one. Kids take on the role of a penguin and \u201cwaddle around and meet new friends.\u201d Youngsters can chat with other penguins, but they can only use certain phrases pre-approved by the site moderators, ensuring that there\u2019s never any inappropriate exchanges. The game also features cool games that allow kids to earn coins and purchase apparel and accessories for their penguins.<\/p>\n

###\u00a0PBS Kids<\/a><\/p>\n

PBS Kids is a great site for younger kids because it\u2019s not only fun and educational, but it features youngster\u2019s favorite cartoon characters as well. Preschoolers can learn their letters, numbers, shapes, and colors while \u201cplaying\u201d on the site, all the while gaining digital literacy skills such as using a mouse and keyboard.<\/p>\n

These are just a few of the valuable internet resources for kids on the Web; there are hundreds of sites featuring useful content for little ones, and new ones are being created every day. Even so, it\u2019s important to be cautious when allowing your child to explore online.<\/p>\n
