What Parents Need to Know

About TurboNick

Parents need to know that this site's interface is a little hard to use. It's not always clear what needs to be clicked in order to select a game or video. Ads appear before and after the selected videos. Kids can watch whole episodes of Nickelodeon shows on the site, so if you don't want kids to watch Mr. Meaty or another show, you may want to keep an eye on them while they surf around.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about how to plan their mash-up movies in the games section. This fun activity is less of a game and more of an interactive, creative movie-making session for families. How do you choose a theme for your mash-up movie? What elements do you like to include in your movies?

    Turbonick

    Torbonick would be perfectly fine if it could load the videos faster. I don't know why it is doing this but I know that it is not my computer. The videos can hardly be watched. They load the wrong way so you have to come back to your computer in two hour to watch the video and it still has so many problems with how fast it loads. I have tried it several times because it is a convienient way to view the videos and it is free. I guess I will have to wait for these shows to come on tv because it is almost impossible to even look at the viedo without it skipping the good parts or it plays the sound for the add when it is playing everything in the video. It would be a good site without this but thus problem effects everything on the site which means it is very very very very very very hard to use!!!

    A Waste of Time!

    Unless you think your children are suffering from a lack of mindless Nickalodeon shows, I don't see the point of this site. The site might as well be a Sponge Bob site with a few extra shows thrown in, and the only creative aspect is a Nick version of Youtube.
