Here are starting resources for both sides of the evolution/intelligent design debate. Regardless of what one believes about this debate, reviewing materials from both sides is an opportunity for our kids (and/or us) to:

(1) practice critical thinking skills by analyzing both sides of a debate
(2) learn more about science, cosmology, biology, micro-biology, and how scientific observations are evaluated
(3) learn more about the philosophy and definitions of science
(4) learn more about a current debate (going beyond the few sound bites offered in news-analysis shows) with potentially big consequences in terms of world views
