Search Engines for Kids
by Lawrence J. Magid

As kids get older, they also start to learn to use search engines like Yahoo, Lycos, Google, AltaVista and Excite. These sites are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, but they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go.

There are, however, search engines designed just for kids. Yahooligans, which is operated by Yahoo, contains only sites that have been handpicked as safe.

Ask Jeeves for Kids has the same natural language query engine as the general version but unlike the main site, it brings up only sites that meets the company's child friendly guidelines. Kids can "Ask Jeeves" general questions like "who is president of South Africa" and get links to sites about Nelson Mandela, apartheid and other related topics.

"CYBERsitter is the most advanced and effective 
product available for restricting access to 
objectionable Internet material."
