You probably know these already, more useful for the parent to help the kids than the kids using directly:
http://howstuffworks.com/
http://aaamath.com/
Sites with cool downloadable shareware:
http://flixprod.com/
http://nolimitscoaster.com
http://phelios.com/ (we have full of Lua Lua and recommend)
http://retro64.com/ (we have full of Best Friends Forever and recommend)
I could also recommend commercial games Myst and Uru, Brother Bear and the Petz series (very cheap on Ebay now).
The Tomb Raider Level editor is free and you get loads of user made levels including easy kid themed levels with no enemies, no deadly traps and a very cartoony setting. Imagine Lara pushing blocks with numbers and swimming in a pool with little mermaid textures. Cute! :D
Yes, this commnent quickly degenerated from the tradicional educational to the silly, but that's me. :D
Tee Hee...Yup, you know, you're right! Atypical for whom, though?
Thanks so much for making it today, thanks for our pressies and so sorry to shoot off without proper goodbyes. (Dd suddenly gave out on us, rather unsurprisingly after yesterday!)
Oh, I didn't know of this page of yours. I will check your collection and my favourite's mess and suggest something in a bit. :D
ReplyDeleteNot much you don't have already.

Thank you so much Leo. Am of to check them all out...they all look fantastic!
ReplyDeleteGreat lists! Sorry, have nothing to add, but can't wait to look at all G's sites :-)
ReplyDeleteOT: Have been meaning to mention this to you for ages: Your blog list should say 'Atypical Homeschool/Life', not 'A Typical...' :-P
