Here you will find helpful information from links on numerous topics and a Website of the Month...


In this online publication, 'Click the Mouse' welcomes preschoolers and early elementary students to view photos, play games, color pictures, print out projects, look through scrapbooks, and browse a Bookshelf prepared just for their age group. (Each character in the magazine has a book recommendation as well.) An online sample of the current print issue is available also.

Children can "Meet Click and Friends," "Play & Explore," and visit "Beatrice's World" of photos from around the world. There are buttons to click for printing, audio directions, and links to photos. Children can also send their own drawings to be posted in the magazine's Gallery.

Links found at Click provide access to subscription information, Teacher's Guides, and information about other magazines for children of age 6 months to age 14 years.

After exploring this magazine online, come to the library and take a look at the latest print issue of Click in the Children's Department. There are also copies of past issues to borrow.
