What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this well-organized, kid-friendly mega resource is the place to go for fun facts and homework help. It's brought to you by educational professionals, so no need to worry about the content. The multiple ads per page are the only annoying thing to be found.
What's it about?
Need a quick word definition, a date in history, or a math formula? It's in here! This site from the publishers of Information Please and Pearson Education offers a dictionary, an atlas, and an encyclopedia all in one -- plus a lot more. There are some fresh features every day, such as a new quiz to try (monuments or landmarks) or a poll (such as "Where would you like to travel?") to take.
Is it any good?
Where else will you find timelines on so many topics, from a history of Crayola crayon colors to a history of the Internet? Browse through the more than 30,000 short biographies or head on over to the Homework Helper section for an educational boost. State nicknames? They're on the fun-to-use FACTMONSTER.COM, as well as information on flags of the world, countries, oceans, and rivers. And, when it's time for recess, you can play some educational math and language games.
