KidZui, The Internet for Kids, announced a major expansion incorporating new kid-safe social networking features, a Homework Helper, and that they have reached 1.5 million parent- and teacher-approved websites, games, pictures and videos. Based on its standards for Internet safety, KidZui has also been awarded the first-ever WiredTrust Best Practice seal for a children’s site.
KidZui’s new kid-safe social networking features, designed specifically for kids age 3-12, include a live mini-feed that allows kids to connect and stay in touch with their friends, express their feelings and opinions, and share cool content that they discover online. All friend requests are subject to mutual parent approval. Just as adults can support candidates on Facebook, kids using KidZui can now “befriend” Barack Obama, John McCain, Joe Biden and Sarah Palin, view each candidate’s profile page, and comment on and share content with their friends.
