Child-Friendly Search Engines

Many parents (and teachers) typically have difficulty configuring and installing Web filters on computers that are going to be accessed by children. Typically the children have a better handle on how to administer the PC. However, parents are frequently on the look for search engines that are child-friendly. These are search engines that filter out objectionable material and provide a cheerier interface.

I don’t have any recommendations that I think are perfect but here are some options to investigate if you are uncomfortable leaving you child on Google.

• Yahoo Kids
• KidsClick
• Zoo
• AOL Study Budy
• Ask for Kids
