mo2 Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 My 6yo loves to play on the computer. Her older cousins introduced her to barbie.com, myscene.com, pollypocket.com, etc. I consider these to be, well, crap. They are filled with ads and I don't like the way the dolls are dressed. I think they set a bad example for little girls. Anyway, on to the question: What websites are there that are free that have educational games for children around this age? She's tired of starfall and pbs, which are the only ones I can think of right now. She is not a reader yet, so we run into problems with that a lot. I also work and have a toddler, so I don't really want to have to sit and read the screen to her. Any suggestions? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
