Educational WebSites

My youngest sister has asked for references to some of the educational sites that I use for my kids. Rather than enter all of the info into a e-mail, I thought it might be easier for her to access it here.   Plus, this way, when my computer decides to quit on me (as all computers eventually do) I'll be able to find my favorite places again.

This is IN NO WAY an exhaustive list - there are tons of resources out there.  These are just the bookmarked sites that I visit most often.

Enjoy browsing!
