Why We Rated This on for Ages 8 and Up

The good stuff

  • Educational value:

    A heavy emphasis on writing -- journaling, writing stories and poetry, contributing recipes -- provides a creative outlet.
  • Messages:

    The site promotes friendship with an interesting and diverse group of friends.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.
  • Sex:

    Not an issue.
  • Language:

    Not an issue.
  • Consumerism:

    Kids can earn Miss O Tokens and use them to enter contests. Miss O merchandise is available on the site, and there are some ads. However, the site's publisher avoids advertisers pushing products with quesionable merit.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Miss O and Friends

Parents need to know that this is a safe and fun web destination with a huge range of interesting activities, from art to games to cooking to crafts.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about what their daughters want to be when they grow up, and whether the site makes them feel like they can be a success in life. The site emphasizes writing and the possibility of being published in a book. Does that make you want to do creative writing on your own time? How do you feel about chatting with friends or playing them online, as opposed to visiting them in real life. Does it make you feel like you could say or do things you wouldn't do in real life? Or do you treat your friends the same online as you do when you're face to face?

    Girls Will Adore

    An adorable website perfect for schoolage girls. I can guarantee that if Miss O existed when I was younger, I'd be on it everyday. There are fun games to play (although they can be challenging for younger kids), contests to enter (with fun prizes!), and links to Miss O stories and books. The only thing that is difficult is that kids send in questions for the crossword puzzles and such, and many don't make sense or are misspelled. Nevertheless, the website is practically flawless and great for girls!
