Free Educational Websites for Children

On Wednesday, January 8, 2014, Training Coordinator Christine Gornik shared a list of ten free learning websites for kids.

Originally assembled by Lyndsey M. Kuster, a first grade teacher in Baltimore, Maryland, the list provides parents and guardians with fun and educational websites that children can enjoy while learning.

Although created as a resource to help bridge the learning gap that the summer months can serve, the websites are appropriate for any time.
