Note: It is important that your child be safe while using the Internet. 

 

When using Google, Chrome. Safari, Firefox, AOL, Bing, Yahoo or similar search tools; add, “for kids” to the search box but be aware, as this does not always filter searches.   

 

I have listed a few sites that are more child-friendly but, PLEASE always monitor the searches done by your child (INCLUDING ON THE WEB SITES LISTED HERE.)

​

These links were checked in November 2016 and all seem to be working properly on my desktop computer. Should you have difficulty, please Google search  the website.
