Kids Online Virtual Worlds are growing strong with new websites launching quite regularly. With different sites offering different features like kids online games, creation of their own virtual avatar, 3d chat, there is sure to be a kids online website to appeal to most.
Fantage is one online virtual world targeted towards children aged 6-14. Players of Fantage can create a customized avatar, play games and chat with other members, alter their avatar's environment, win awards, earn stars, and use the stars to buy new items in the game.
Many virtual worlds really appeal to kids with their 3d animation, colorful worlds to be explored, and the ability for them to create their own avatars. While simply watching television children are unable to interact with anyone Even though there are many safety features of these sites there are still some common sense rules one should follow.
Three important rules for children when using online games!
Don't ever tell anyone your personal information such as your name or address. Even your phone number or where you go to school.
· If someone says or does something that makes you feel uncomfortable, or if they ask for your personal information, tell your parents right away.
· Never give out your password to anybody, even if they say they work for the virtual website.
Children should not spend all their time in front of a computer playing. For those that would do this some sites have a nice feature built in. A timer that you are able to set and once the time is up for the day they can not log in and play anymore.
All children have different personalities, so not all will like the same virtual world. With many different avatar types for children to choose, including penguins, ponies, cartoon characters like fantage, bears, dolls, pets, plush pets, farm animals, robots, and even monsters. There will be a virtual world that will feel just a good as the real world. Just remember to play by the rules and be safe!
