Free Technology For Teachers: Educational Games for Kids- ChildTopia
ChildTopia is full of learning activities and games for children. Most of the games are geared toward the K-3 crowd, but a few of the games I looked at today are suitable for slightly older elementary students. What I really like about the games and activities on ChildTopia is that they are very intuitive games and activities. Of the twelve games I tried today, not one of them would require the aid of a teacher for students to get started playing. How quickly and easily a teacher can get an entire class started with a web application is a critical component of how effective the application will be as an instructional tool and learning experience. ChildTopia advertises that they have over 1400 games and activities available. I'll take their word for it.
