Part of the UpTo10 group of sites, this site has been specially designed for children aged upto 6.

Brilliant for ICT, with simple link buttons to navigate around the site, just point and click. And, even better, once you have visited you can use it off-line, which keeps those phone bills at bay. I thought it was great, but then I am just a big kid at heart!!

I was not sure where to put this link.

You will find literally hundreds of vouchers offering discounts on hundreds of products and services unfortunately you need to live in the USA to take advantage of most of them but maybe the idea will catch on here in the UK.
