Website Review ~ Glubble

Website: Firefox add-on: Glubble
Appropriate for ages: 14 and under
Helps with: Internet safety and general education

Review: Glubble is a Firefox add-on. In other words, it only works if you use Firefox as your internet browser. If you are not a Firefox user, you may want to consider it. Firefox is a free download, and a wonderful browser with many free add-ons to personalize your internet experience.

Glubble can be used to help your kids ease into the internet. It helps you find educational activities on the internet for your kids to play with. There are even puzzles and audio books. Also, you can make a family page where kids can connect with their extended family (or whoever you give access to the page.) That is a nice feature if your child wants to be involved in social networking, but you aren't quite ready for them to have a facebook account. Once you complete the registration for glubble you will have a page that is accessible from any computer on the internet. That is a great feature because you won't have to worry about packing it on the flash drive.
