Other Unique Sites was: Re: [UnschoolingDiscussion] Homestar Runner party
Nichole Fausey-Khosraviani
I went to Homestarrunner last night. I'm sure that Margaux (dd, 7) and I haven't seen it before. I'm sure she'll like it. She's been asking and looking for other sites, but she has quite a long list of places she visits. Can someone give me some sites that may be a bit off the beaten path? I suppose if your children are going there, they might not seem unique to you, but could you share them anyway? Here's Margaux's favorites list:

============
My favorite part is the e-mail.
It's one of the bottom tabs,and I think says sbemail (Strong Bad E-Mail is
what it means but it doesn't say so).
There are two that are particularly great and little kids like:
Japanese Cartoon
Dragon
(It think those are the names).
Some of the e-mails require knowledge of the site and other characters, but
most don't.

Here are three that we enjoy:

www.makingfiends.com
www.steveswebpage.com
Another one we like is Weebl and Bob, but it says the rating is for
15+. It can be a bit rude.
