For Kids Who Love Games & Interactive Stuff
Bonus.com - The SuperSite for Kids - This site has lots of family-safe places to visit. Head in any direction and play a game, enter a contest, find homework help, or learn about dinosaurs or the United States or what's under the sea. For rainy-day fun, remember this site!
Create Your Own Fireworks Show - Choose a background: San Francisco, New York, or another city. Then select the color starburst you want and the type of shell you want to launch. Keep clicking and enjoy the show (and the sound effects). This is part of a larger site with trivia games, music, and lots of patriotic fun.
FunBrain - How about playing some math baseball? You pick how difficult the math questions should be and decide whether you want addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, or all of the above. Then the computer will ask you an arithmetic question. Can you get it right? Swing the bat--wow, it's a triple! After that, see how good you are at making change for a dollar. How many pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters should you give back after a certain purchase is made? This site has other fun games, too, including a concentration matching game.
Kids Domain - This is a must-see site for all families. Lots of games and pictures to color, software downloads, clip art, and a list of links to similar sites. Click on Surf Safe and learn what rules you should follow when using the computer. Or go to Kids Can Program and find software that will help you develop your computer skills. Finally, take a minute (or lots of minutes) to scroll through the What's New section to find new games, ideas, activities, and more.
Lemonade Stand - In this easy-to-learn simulation game of high finance, you start with a fistful of dollars, a dream, and a weather forecast. Balance the cost of rent, lemons, and your advertising budget into your sales price per cup. Watch that weatherperson! Can you squeeze out a lemonade empire, or will you lose all your lemons?
Seussville Games - Just pick up the clover containing the entire Who civilization and place it back in Horton's trunk. Seems easy, right? Not when the screen is dark! Then scramble your brains with the Cat in the Hat's concentration game, or see if you can match the right kooky teacher with her classroom in Diffendoofer School. Try to sort out Sneetches with stars on their bellies from those without them, and then play Net-mom's favorite, the Lorax's Save the Trees game.
Snowflake Designer - 6 Sides! - Around the holidays it's fun to fold little squares of paper (directions here) and snip them here and there to make a lacy snowflake. The trouble is, you can never visualize what all your cutting will look like before the paper is unfolded. Now you can! Try this snowflake designer, and make a whole blizzard!
