Children will be able to find out about Government, public services and the world around them in a fresh, fun and informative way through the DirectgovKids website.
The site is designed to look like a revolving globe, with interactive buildings that children can investigate. There are online activities and exciting games, as well as animations and slideshows. |
DirectgovKids can be used in the classroom, across the curriculum, as it has many useful lesson materials. It is the only free resource of its type for schools. Children can also access it from their home PC, for a fun home-learning experience.
DirectgovKids aims to get children from five to 11
- engaged with some of the areas of Government that have an impact on their lives
- learning about and understanding the society they are growing up in.
There is also a dedicated area for parents, full of activities and suggested places to go and things to see.
To receive the full benefits the site is best used with a multimedia PC with sound, see related links.
