We're continually reviewing new sites and adding resources, and appreciate your comments and suggestions. Suggest a link here


This site provides resources for parents of all children of all ages and relationships (e.g., step-parents, grandparents, parents of pre-schoolers, etc.).

Maintained by the University of Alabama Division of General Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine, this site offers child health links in several categories.

In addition to resources for healthcare professionals, this site offers parenting resources and links to sites of interest to parents of children of all ages. Many subtopics, extensive information, and chances to "ask the Dr."

Riki Intner, educator and counselor, has written a very helpful article, here in full text, offering help in disciplining children in families where an adult is recovering from drug or alcohol abuse.

This comprehensive site offers a newsletter, articles, expert index, marketplace and related links, as well as a chance to chat about parenting toddlers to teens.

Information on creating and nurturing a partnership between parents and schools for the best interest of kids, tips on helping kids learn, and workbooks on family involvement in schools are a few of the many valuable resources available here. A must-see site for involved parents and teachers.

ReadersNdex would like to "build the best site for books on the Web." They offer a user-friendly index, a reading room, and a sign-up for a custom newsletter. They will e-mail info on new publications in your chosen areas. Many parenting selections.

The New Parent, Educating Children, Improving Your Parenting Skills, and Children with Special Needs are the categories you may access in this site for descriptions of worthwhile parenting books. Also offered: Science Kits and Robots, Activity Corner, and Learning Library.

Brought to you by "a business partner to the higher education community," this practical site includes interactive calculators for figuring loan payments, a printable loan applications, keyword search capabilities, and an interactive table of contents that's gotten high ratings from our reviewers (and others, too!)

There are some fun things here for educators and parents. You can explore science-related resources and connect with schools and educators. Colorful and easy to navigate.

The Seeds of Change Garden web site is the result of the Smithsonian Institution's Natural Partners Initiative, and was created by the New Mexico State University College of Agriculture and Home Economics. There are garden activities for all seasons, recipes, and lots of wonderful information about the origins of food crops. Turn on the Teacher/Parent Notes and get extra information on each page. Cool!

This is a great spot for you and your child to learn about astronomy together. One part, the High-Energy Astrophysics Learning Center, is pretty advanced in its study of X-ray and gamma-ray technology, but it's well done and allows you to ask questions of professional high-energy astronomers. A nice feature is the linking of possibly unfamiliar words to a glossary entry.

This "Realistic Approach to Prevent & Intervene in Adolescent Drug Use" is actually a book offered for sale, but large chunks of it are offered online for your edification. There are lots of quotes from teens, parents, counselors, and others, and lots of advice.

This is the place for up-to-date information on SIDS. Support for grieving parents as well. Downloadable files of brochures.

Online reviews of children's software for parents, teachers, and kids. A neat resource.

Barbara J. Feldman reviews several great related sites each week for newspapers across the country. This site contains those excellent reviews, available by topic or chronologically. This is a wonderful source of interesting material on the Web, whether you’re surfing with kids or not!

This is "The Smart Way to Shop for Kids' Software" and allows you to search 2500 titles by age and topic. The site offers reviews of educational products by leading software critics, feature articles, award winners and member picks, and demos so you can try before you buy (on site, of course!).

The University of Arkansas at Little Rock's College of Education site is a marvelous resource for students, teachers, and parents. The authors have taken ERIC, broken it up into easy-to-use bits, and explained them all! The Libraries, Education Resources, and Parents sections are excellent. In Teacher Links, click on your area of study and bring up a substantial list of annotated links, plus a lesson plan section, and a number of special education categories. A winner!
