Isn't it strange to think our kids will never know a life without computers and technology inundation? It's crazy to me that my 2 year old can work my husband's iPad better than I can. All of this technology stuff is going to come pretty naturally to most of our kids (whether we like it or not).
Here are some of my favorite websites for my kids. Feel free to comment and add your own, including iPhone and iPad apps!
Starfall - with ABCs, phonics, easy-to-read stories, and games, Starfall is a great "starter" website. It's where two of my kids have learned how to use the mouse (in the ABC section, where there's a flashing arrow to click on most pages). My 6 year old still plays around on this site from time to time.
PBS Kids - I'm pretty sure my 4 year old learned her letters this summer from Super Why. (That isn't terrible of me, right?) My 6 year old likes Prankster Planet, which has some math involved.
Khan Academy - while this site is geared toward slightly older children (and adults), I still must mention it. Khan Academy began as a group of math explanation videos, and it has turned into a treasure trove of hundreds of great educational/explanation videos, including addition and subtraction, algebra, calculus, economics, government/civics, biology, and more.
What are your favorites?
