Poisson Rouge

poissonrouge.JPGAs I have already said I have decided to let my children play with the computer.  The rule, though, is that the games have to be somewhat educational. It’s not going to be me that introduces them to the “shoot-them-all” arcade type of games.
So it’s with great pleasure that I have discovered Poisson Rouge — a French website of online games for toddlers and preschoolers. The abundance of games is amazing, and they are quite entertaining too. Children will learn shapes, numbers, play musical instruments, play with regular toys and even modern art paintings… I love them all! Some of them will even teach a few words of French, English or Chinese!
Poisson Rouge doesn’t allow advertising and it runs only thanks to donations and the sale of merchandising. It is definitely a safe place on the web for your computer-savvy children!
