Pass the Time with Webkins and Club Penguin this Summer

Two very kid-friendly and utterly addictive sites for our kids (ranging from 3-9 years); Club Penguin and Webkinz.

These sites promote very safe environments, filters, no advertising, and altogether really great fun for kids now looking for diversions during summer thunderstorms.

The only problem with Webkinz, we've found, is the "keep up with the Joneses" mentality around the block (and yes, with some Parents), regarding how many Webkinz and Lil'kinz they've actually purchased. We actually tried to purchase some from Ebay; it's amazing how fast and active the bidding is; most reasonable purchases close under $20, but you have to be fast on the bidding trigger.
