crowscreek Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 My 4yo really likes Starfall.com, but it is getting pretty repetitive for me. I was wondering if there are any similar sites out there? I have visited http://www.brainpopjr.com and like that one as well. Thanks for your help! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathmom Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 http://www.sheppardsoftware.com/web_games.htm is pretty popular at our house these days. We are really enjoying this site, too. My 9 year old is becoming quite the geography master thanks to the games, and my 6 year old loves the math games best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrs.m Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 I've been letting my 5yo play here just for fun: http://pbskids.org/island/login/manage/ turns out whenever I ask him how he knows a word or letter sounds he says he learned it playing the pbskids games. They have a nifty progress tracker for letter recognition, phonemic awareness skills, phonics, rhyming, etc. Apparently he really is learning from this website!
