300 Incredible Things for Kids on the Internet (Powerfresh)

Essentially, this is a collection of Web addresses, with little commentary, that you can visit with your browser. The sites cover a considerable range of topics from general-reference sites (including dictionaries, encyclopedias, and almanacs) to specialized sites (literature, space exploration, science projects, dinosaurs, pets, history--you name it). Everything's screened for kid-suitability, though the content of the various sites appeals to different age groups (say, from preschool through junior high).

Plus, Leebow includes a selection of parental-interest sites. These deal with parenting advice, education issues, health, and safety. These sites also address Internet issues, including objectionable content and--for those parents who need to catch up to their kids' skill level--the basics of Web surfing. --David Wall

Children are our most precious commodity. The book 300 Incredible Things for Kids on the Internet is filled with great resources from the internet which is safe and constructive information.

These resources are virtually a collection of web addresses that you can visit with your web browser. These addresses are full of subjects which range from general reference - dictionary, encyclopedia to specialized subjects - literature, space, history, pets - you name it. It can be all found in this book.

Another rewarding experience with this book is that both the parent and kids can go online and browse to find valuable information.

I hadn't really expected it to be just a list of internet addresses but even so I was quite pleasantly suprised. Even my 13 year old computer whiz kid son was fairly impressed - not that he would admit to it! nd it's not just for kids either - I found a few sites that I was interested in - mind you, I'm a big kid at heart!


This is a great book for kids of all ages!   February 8, 1999

When I have to look up something for school, or for fun, this is a great book to look whatever I want up! And it's all safe for kids to use too.
