safe websites for kids?

24 years ago

I have posted also on the Grandparent's forum, seeking some safe websites for the grandson to visit from time to time when he visits. Had a list, currently no less than 2 of the recommended 12 are currently in service, would someone have some to share with us? Appreciate any input.

disney.com and nick.com are fun. With help a young child could do some of the stuff at those sites, and at 9 or so they are fine by themselves. You could also do a search at yahooligans.com (the yahoo site especially for kids) for games, etc.

I love my Lowe counter stools from Crate and Barrel. They are very comfortable, easy to clean and very sturdy. https://www.crateandbarrel.com/lowe-smoke-leather-counter-stool/s281194?localedetail=US&ps_cid=900&a=1552&campaignid=657519289&adgroupid=34201459355&targetid=pla-300544036970&pla_sku=281194&scid=scplp281194&sc_intid=281194&scid=scplp281194&sc_intid=281194&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIq5zYmYCD2AIV1Y-zCh1ZrwD7EAYYASABEgLX8vD_BwE

Pool bench/shelf/ledge safe with kids/teens?
Q
Comments (2)
Full disclosure (we don't have any kids!) but we did put a similar bench in our sport style all one depth pool. Thought we would use it a lot but we do not. Our dogs don't like the pool. The ledge does get in my way if I am simply walking around; it is easy to stub your toes! I believe there are certain regulations which require a bench at certain depths. If I did it again, I would keep our large shallow tanning shelf area but omit the long bench. It's really hard to guess how you will use your pool when planning. Good luck!

That is beautiful. First thing to do is teach your children to swim. Even tiny tots can learn. Are there lessons taught at your local municipal pool? Or are there teenagers who provide private lessons?

Q
Comments (4)
My son and husband have severe allergies so carpet is not an option but thanks for the suggestion. I really would like to go with the vinyl plank flooring and have began my brand research but was hopeful someone had already been done this road and could offer some advice on safest/healthiest options.

This page has U.S. government links for kids to all kinds of sites, from the dept of health and human services it looks like.

http://www.acf.dhhs.gov/kids/

Sometimes the links won't work. The White House link for kids gave me an error page. But, across the top of that page are links. Clicking on the 'for kids only' link will take you to the White House kids pages section (there is a time line which is linked nicely), but clicking the center text link for the White House.gov will get you to the kid's White House pages.

The other pages might have similar links, even if they give error pages initially too. I'm not sure, but the White House kid's pages are very well done and nicely linked.
