The FAQ has answers to classic questions, those that you have probably answered many times. That a great resource for the ever curious, or those that just want to check up on the teacher

This site uses interactive stories and original thinking games to get kids to solve mysteries and learn crucial problem solving skills such as using the Internet for research and investigation, reading, and writing. The project encourages exploration of a wide range of subjects from math and science to geography, genetics and history. Admittedly, it's also, as one kid wrote, "freaky weird."
