  • Common Sense says

    Virtual girl world without much whirl; has chat.

Why We Rated This on for Ages 8 and Up

The good stuff

  • Educational value:

    Not an issue.
 

What to watch out for

  • Messages:

    As like most virtual worlds, being rejected is all part of the game. Without a face-to-face conversation about why someone doesn't want to be your "friend," can be very confusing -- and hurtful -- to kids. On the plus side, kids learn to approach new "people" and strike up a conversation.

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.

  • Sex:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    There's a real push to buy and consume things. The site offers users the chance to purchase avatar clothes and accessories using G-Coins, which can be bought via credit card, PayPal, check or money order, or real-life cash.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Kuttiez

Parents need to know that the Kuttiez virtual world strives to achieve a "safe, kid-friendly atmosphere," but the forums and email services are only periodically monitored. However, the site does have a safety section that includes basic tips such as never give out your name or passwords. Girls can help other users on the site or play games to earn virtual cash (which is one of the main goals of the site) -- although G-Coins can also be bought with real-life cash, check or money order, credit card, or via PayPal.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about Internet safety. Why can chatting online with strangers -- even if they're only identified as an avatar -- be dangerous? What information is OK to share? What's should be kept to yourself?
