Favorite Twaddle-free websites for 11 and 6 yo?


Recommended Posts

Hi!

 

My boys, especially the 11 year old, are wanting to spend more time "playing" online.  So far he googles interesting things (trees!) and visits "kizi" that he remembers from second grade in public school.  To me, kizi seems awful and I have tried directing him toward some Clickschooling websites, but he is so resistant if he thinks it is educational!

 

So far, I have:

 

Kahn Academy

NeoK12

Dance Mat Typing

 

and, we bought an ASK Science kit, which I think will lend some ideas.

 

Thanks in advance for any ideas@ :coolgleamA:

Apps are easier for that. Dragonbox, etc

 

But uh well let's see. PRODIGYmath is for fun and is legit.

 

CK12 is overtly educational, but they still may enjoy it

 

BrainPop

 

For coding, they could do scratch or code.org or codeacademy

 

123 circuits for electronics

 

PBSkids.org might be too twaddly for you or too young for your 11 y/o, but my kids love it.

 

There's an insane amount of cool stuff to read on wikibooks

 

BBC body

 

Biology questions and answers

 

NASA math
