Web Site Review ~ Funbrain.com

Website: funbrain.com
Appropriate for ages: 5-11
Helps with: Reading, Math, Language

Funbrain.com is one of the more well known sites among kids. However, if you have not discovered it yet, your child will probably enjoy it. I actually enjoy some of the games myself. Younger children can work on counting skills, connect - the - dots, and guess the numbers. Older children can explore fractions, place value, operations, nouns, plurals, vocabulary, spelling, and so much more. Most skills are worked on in the form of a game so that kids will enjoy it. You can choose the level of difficulty in almost every game. This is great because it allows the skill level to grow with your child. There are also several "just - for - fun" games to play with as well. If you choose to play arcade style, make sure you write down the password they give you so that you can start from that point next time you use the site!
