Is It Any Good?

ANAMALZ is not the type of Web site that will keep kids occupied for hours on end. And it doesn't want to be. Socially and ecologically-conscious, the site focuses on introducing users to its cast of wooden animal characters and providing some quick entertainment in the process. Although you won't find too many things to do on the site, what it does do, it does extremely well. The music, supplied by Australian singer Beau Young, is sweet and soulful and is a highlight of the site. The magically realistic animation segments let the personality of the figure shine through, with activities designed for the youngest newbie computer user.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
