The children of today will be using computers their entire lives, but you want to keep them safe as they do so. I am providing here a list of websites that I have found to be safe for children.
Use your usual caution when checking out these websites. They appeared safe when I checked them, but hacks and changes of ownership can happen.
Disney Junior - Games featuring Disney characters from their TV shows.
PBSKids - The PBS website. Online games with your child's favorite PBS characters, from Sesame Street to Between the Lions.
