All three of these sites were new to me, so I had a nice time exploring. I was impressed with the quality and variety of games at the Sheppard Software site. The site itself can be a bit overwhelming in terms of being able to wade through all of the options--something you might have mentioned in your review--but it seems to be worth it.
I was not too impressed with the Geology side of the Kids Geo site. While the geography offerings were useful, the geology games didn't seem to offer much variety of help to the user.
Thanks for the nice reviews.
Man! I checked out your sites and they were too cool. I really like the "Kids Know It" site. I was looking at different kinds of animals and checking out the facts about them. I know a few boys who would love to look at this site. GOOD JOB!!
