REVIEW:
Kids Ark is a safe cyber space station for youngsters to explore on their own. Captain Zeb, the friendly host, gathers information from around the world to post here. The content varies from Pond Dipping to Conkers and Ghosts to Fossils and Weird Beasts. Children are encouraged to contribute their own artwork and reports. Kids Ark will appeal to the imagination of children or those who may still be children at heart. Each section includes information on the topic plus activities to do at home or school. For example, in Pond Dipping, children can learn how to pond dip safely or build their own wildlife pond. The Puzzle Dome is changed frequently and will keep kids engaged for hours.
