Computer Games for Kids:
Though many worry that kids may spend too much time on the computer, there are some great games that help kids learn to read and allow them to create their own stories. Look for "parent approved" on the packaging in stores and in the library. Find some kid-friendly websites, like TVOKids (www.tvokids.com/framesets/grownUps.html) and Canadian Geoillustrated for Kids (http://canadiangeographic.ca/atlas/intro.aspx?lang=En), that have games you can play along with your child.
