    A great website where kids can play free reading games and activities with their parents. I especially love the Word of the Day box at the bottom left corner of the screen. The word (meant for young children) is accompanied by the definition and a brief, 20-second animated video to further understanding of the new word.
     
     
    Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful, FREE website!!  I know you will LOVE it too!  It's Professor Garfield and is a site that fits students of all elementary ages.
