Kids Konnect / Jan Belzer [Website]
Kids Konnect is a website for children that was created in 1999 by Jan Belzer, who has maintained and updated the site since that time. The content of the site is encyclopedic in nature in that it has entries on a large range (hundreds) of topics. Each entry is not a comprehensive treatment of the subject, and sometimes it is basically a set of links to other websites, but the content and links are appropriate for children in elementary school.
I find that the site is arranged in an easy to use fashion, which is probably due to the fact that Jan Belzer is a teacher and she understands how to make websites relevant for children of a certain age. The pages are colourful, often animated and fairly short in length. Sometimes the colour of the page makes it difficult to read, but generally they are simple well done and not adorned with advertisements.
