What parents need to know
Parents need to know that since the site uses British spelling, kids may be a little confused by some of the words ("curb" vs. "kerb"). Also, the sentences are often read out loud and the British accents may sound unfamiliar at first. No ads.

Educational but not high interest
Good, but a little boring. Funny that the British pronounce ar, al, and a the same way (ah) so they need to learn how to distinguish these - they're much easier for Americans.
