Clean website with some violence and Language

Disney is clean but there are some games with violence, videos/music with swears such as Hella and ASS. LOTS OF ADS TOO

This title has:

Too much violence
Too much swearing
Too much consumerism

Way too many commercials

I saw 11 commercials straight in a row. I know it is after 10:00 p.m. but this is ridiculous. Play like a few minutes of the show and go right back into a bunch of commercials. As a grandmother and an educator this is poor business.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say (3):
Kids say (47):

Disney fans are in for a treat: DISNEY.COM is a sleek, crisp Web site with all things Disney. From movies to television to radio to games and more, kids can find their favorite Disney people, places, and things all in one spot, clearly organized so they can find their favorites very easily. They may be distracted on the way, however; streaming videos are found mid-screen throughout, highlighting Disney.com offerings, and multiple banner ads rotate for optimum attention grabbing (and diversion).

The games on Disney.com are definitely worth mentioning and playing. Whether going on an Orchestra Treasure Hunt with Little Einsteins, completing Black Pearl 101 with the Pirates of the Caribbean, or playing Super Villain Smash Out with Kim Possible, the games are fun -- and a lot are educational.

Online interaction: Communication varies across the site, and includes chat, message boards, and public forums. Parents can set the level of interaction their child can participate in.

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.
