rooms and message boards where kids can communicate with their peers. Although most of the
content on Cyberkids is geared toward children ages 7 to 12, you as a parent will also
find some things here to interest you. In the "Cyberviews" area, you will find
movie, book and product reviews. In the "Launchpad" area, there are links,
categorized by subject, to many other Internet sites useful to kids. The "Learning
Center" has links to sites where your child can find online tutoring, help with
homework, and information on scholarships. Finally, the "Shopping" section
