I am going to have to check out Starfall! I am always looking for fun new sites for them!
I heard rumor Northern Va kids are STILL out of school today…oh my!

Ditto on starfall.com – it\’s a great site! Used it as a classroom teacher and now use it to teach my own at home (most appropriate for ages 4-7 or so). My kids also love pbskids.org and I love the fact that the games are educational and they can\’t easily leave the site to go somewhere \"unintended\". Oh, and if you think Virginia freaks out, you should see us here in GA!

Thanks for the links! We love Spelling City and Cool Math Games. Most of the other sites are new to me. Can’t wait to check them out. My kids think it is such a treat when they earn some computer time. (So do I!!!) They usually don’t even realizing they are learning – but they are!

Another great link is starfall.com. As a teacher, I tell all my parents about it because it has multiple levels (my kindergarten kids loved to tell their younger sibs about it). Stay warm! As a teacher (in northern VA), I’m itching to go back Monday (we’ve already closed tomorrow).

Great links! And lots of smiles on the LOTS of snow and ‘the whole town’ being shut down in some areas – I’ve lived that before! :) (Of course, not here in the great white North ;) more in places where they are not accustomed to a few flakes ;) )
