15 free educational kids websites

With my 4-year-old starting Pre-K this year, I have been working hard to ensure he knows everything he needs to get the most out of it. I’ve been looking at activities to improve reading skills in children, got him to use better pen control, and worked on his speech because his pronunciation isn’t the best. With this being said, I really wanted to find a way for him to use the computer but for educational purposes. There are so many websites out there for kids to play educational games but I know as parents we often times don’t have time to sit and look through all of them. I created a list of 15 free educational kids websites for all ages that I hope is helpful to others.
