Right now what my kids can acesses online is very strict - just a few Jewish video sites like tooveddo, yidflix and etc and Microsoft word, excel and PowerPoint. Everything else is blocked.

Ds 11 is a very curious child and loves technology. He would love to be able to do more on the computer. Something tells me that if I don't allow some leyway in this area he's the type of kid that's going to figure out other ways to get online eventually...so I would like to allow a bit more...

What are some other websites or programs that would be ok to allow though? I don't want to have to proofread anything...it doesn't necessarily have to be Jewish but I would need everything on the website to be age appropriate and ok for a Jewish child to read...

I would also allow some games but don't want anything to addictive and etc...

Maybe some sort of coding site? You’d need someone to confirm it’s ok.

TorahGames? I'd give a time limit though. Some of the games are more addictive and less educational. (Nothing like minecraft though)

torahlive.com

alephbeta.org, depending on your idea of age-appropriate. I could see some people feeling it is for older than age 11, but I am comfortable with it. It's all Torah, but on some topics like niddah or childbirth people's comfort levels vary.

What about typing.com - learn a skill and there are a lot of typing games.
