A website really designed for kids!

I found this website by the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery education arm and thought I'd share it with you. It is one of the rare sites I've found that really seems to be designed with children in mind. Many of the others I've seen all have that corporate branding look that adults are all so keen on whereas this one with its lovely illustrations seems much more child-friendly to me (I plan to check it out with my own kids to test my theory!). I can imagine this sort of vibe working well for our Circus project.

If you have time the web links at the bottom of the page are also quite interesting especially Bedazzled the kids online fashion magazine done with a Flash plug-in and Bemused which is the Museum's interactive page for kids where they can upload their drawing, watch videos etc.
