common sense media says

Potter-world encyclopedia is one of the best.


parents & educators say

What parents need to know

Parents need to know that this is best described as a Harry Potter encyclopedia and online forum. While advertising is far from the focus, Google ads appear on the main page, some "Lexicon" related retail is available (t-shirts, bags, mugs, etc.), and links to Amazon for J.K. Rowling's books are placed throughout the site. There are three levels of access to this site (guest, read-only, participant) and the discussions are definitely monitored by staff as well as self-regulated by contributors.

Educational value: Details of Harry Potter facts can be searched and studied easily. Much provided here for the wizard in training ... or the big fan.
Positive messages: Not applicable.
Violence: Not applicable.
Sex: Not applicable.
Language: Not applicable.
Consumerism: On HP-Lexicon you'll find the site's own store, Google Ads, and links to Amazon for buying Harry Potter books, but commercialism has a soft presence on this site.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Not applicable.

What to talk about

Talk to your kids

Families can talk about what they're looking up about the Potter world. Does it help them understand some of the themes in the books? Would you create such a site for other book series you read, and if so, which ones?

Is it any good?

Is it any good?
 

Unless information overload is a deterrent, HP-LEXICON is a "prefectly" (Potter pun intended here) good website for kids to find all they could ever want to know about the world of Harry Potter. Google ads are on the main page, there are several links to Amazon for purchase of Harry Potter books and there is a store where kids can buy HP-Lexicon garb. However, commercialism has a soft presence on this site; the focus is on the facts and lots of them!
