My children love using the computer. I've found its a great way to reinforce topics as well as research things that I don't know the answers to. {I'll let the kids pick 1 topic a week and we research it...like worms and such).

Again, those of you who know me, know I hate to pay for anything. So, I figured I'd start the following thread of sites our kids like to use. I figure anything less than $20.00 per month is ok, but please mark is the site costs money.

Please follow the following Template: just highlight and copy it onto your post.
