Is it any good?
You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy the BabagaNewz Web site -- there is really something for everyone. Non-Jewish kids may be a little confused by some of the words at first, but will catch on fast. There is no proselytizing by the site; the emphasis is on sharing Jewish heritage.

Fun stuff!!
There are some great games on this site. Sure they're educational, but they're clean and fun. Lots of other good content. Tours of Israel, stuff about holidays, music, videos...very cool...
