In another interesting search for child-friendly websites, I came across FirstGov for Kids.

Many parents out there know about NOGGIN — the network by Nickelodeon that is aimed at pre-schoolers. Regardless of the age for which it is intended, to say that my one-and-a-half-year-old daughter loves the shows on NOGGIN is an understatement. Unfortunately, NOGGIN is only available in our area if you have digital cable. Until this week, we had no digital cable in our living room, so my daughter and I spent a lot of time on NOGGIN.com. Hosted by NOGGIN’s cartoon personalities Moose A. Moose and Zee, NOGGIN.com makes just about everything from NOGGIN available. Not only does NOGGIN.com list … Continue reading →
