Fun Online Games For Toddlers
My young nephew educated me about the fact that toddlers aren't shy about going online and playing games. In fact, I was very surprised at how young he was when he became Internet savvy. The mouse didn't intimidate him at all. His comfort with searching online was eventually accompanied by an almost insatiable desire for more activities.
His mother let me know his favorites, so I've had a chance to play on them. I enjoy them almost as much as my nephew does! You might find that your children like them too.
Please note that some of the games and activities on some of the sites (or those linked from them) are for older children but many are suitable for toddlers.
Disney Preschool (http://home.disney.go.com/foryou/preschool/)
As could be expected, Disney offers a web channel for pre-schoolers, which is chock full of fun videos and music. They also have plenty of games, such as Pooh's Playful Kite Flight, Pop-up Assignments and Hop up and Jump In. Kids can also enter the "worlds" of a variety of Disney characters, such as Tinkerbell, Buzz Lightyear, Imagination Movers, Phineas and Ferb and many other kid favorites.
HubPages (http://hubpages.com/_coloringpages/)
HubPages is a community blogging site that offers all kinds of resources, including kids activities. There are free flower coloring pages, Halloween coloring pages and crafts and Christmas activities for kids, as well as many others. You can either click the links in this article or search the HubPages site for other coloring pages and activities.
Nick Games (http://www.nick.com/games/)
Nickolodeon brings cartoons to life on their game site. Their many offerings include games starring the penguins from Madagascar, SpongeBob Squarepants, Otis from Back at the Barnyard and Jimmy Neutron. There are also many other categories of games for kids of all ages.
Coloring.com (home page: http://www.coloring.com/, categorized index page: http://www.coloring.com/pictures/choose.cdc)
This site is actually relatively low tech, making it simple to navigate. It has a large selection of coloring pages accessible by those who can read the categories. These can be accessed by going to the "categorized index page" URL shown above. The home page has picture navigation, though, so your child may be able to navigate it alone.
May your children have many happy hours playing on these sites!
