My kids love Seasame Street  and Nick.com.  Also scholastic and Thomas.  My favorite for craft ideas and coloring pages is First Preschool and their sister site DTKL kids. 

It was a major feat just to branch out to PBS kids from Noggin and Nick Jr.  I doubt we will be branching out anytime soon.

Thanks for the links, I am going to check those out.  Maybe DD will budge a bit.

Adam in into the Cartoon Network site.  He can download videos of his favorite cartoons, and also he goes on the Sims website for tips and videos.

His current thing is the Sims.  Non stop if we would let him.   

Mason is more of a CD-Rom kind of guy...we have tons of games that he loves...some of his favorites are Clifford, Pajama Sam and a tonka firefighter game he has.

He has gone to a few of the above mentioned websites, but it's harder for him to find his way around the websites...he likes being able to just stick the game in and go rather than wait for things to download, lol.

You are welcome. CJ loves brainpop jr too.  This site is how he learned about Christopher Columbus and Thanksgiving among other things.  They also have stories about brushing your teeth and more hygiene related stories.  With the different and more advanced categories, I thought it would be too advanced for him, but he is really hooked on this site. 


My boy was so fascinated the first time he was on the NickToon website...especially seeing his 1st favourite cartoon Hey Arnold ! We printed a picture of Arnold with Helga etc & laminated the picture...

Then it was Cartoon Network for Teen Titans...

Also-

www.Clubpenguin.com

 

Don used to be into all the sites you're listing.

Nowadays though, it's all about online shopping

Hasbro.com, Toysrus.com, transformers.com, lego.com, and of course,
we can't forget apple quicktime movie trailers!

He is a master at google and searches out pages about all his interests
(transformers, spiderman, buzz lightyear, various movies, california
raisins, and so on). He's starting to get into You Tube (eek! I have to
watch him on there as it's easy to accidentally look up inappropriate
stuff).

Don is computer motivated enough that I think, if he continues working
on his typing skills, that he just may end up like gtto when he's older -
able to converse online, even if he can't do it in person. Ahhhh, that
would be so cool! My son doesn't stay on the computer as long as I'd like him to.  Right now it's pbskids or noggin for 10 minutes max per day.  He'd prefer checking out the computer parts and messing with cords, obviously another issue with how to play appropritely with things in order to learn.  I'm hoping he'll work for Microsoft someday.

My son has been a computer freak since he was 2 yo.  At first it was just pbs and noggin, but now he has many of them.  There are some great educational websites out there.  Here are some of the sites that he goes to on a regular basis. 

PBS

Starfall
This is the best site for teaching children to read.

Storyplace

Cbeebies

Cartoon Network

Noggin


What sites does your child frequent the most?

All 3 of my boys LOVE PBS, Nick.com and Nickjr.com and starfall.

My 4 yr old can stay on the computer completely content for over an hour and sometimes i really need that!!LOL!!!

And my boys have also been freaks since a young age. My twins at 1 1/2 and my 4yr old at 3yrs.

My youngest son likes Starfall, Noggin, and Storyplace.   Do2learn also has activities for kids.

My oldest son likes the Lego site.  He's a Lego Digital Designer.

NASA also has a web page for kids.

My kids are crazy-go-nuts about www.lego.com and also watching amateur Lego films on youtube. 

My youngest son is a train fanatic, and I have a looong list of online train games under a forum topic called something like "obsessed with trains."

An educational favorite is www.iknowthat.com.  There are many more favorites in lots of categories, but I'm working from a borrowed computer while on vacation, so I don't have all my bookmarks.

 

I'd say wikipedia.org is Tony's favorite.  When he's there, he clicks on all kinds of links that take him everywhere.
