Let's Make a Web Page

Let's Make a Webpage! Well, if you are anything like me that is a scary thought! I am new to the blogging world, so the thought of making my own web page is both exhilarating and frightening.

In Let's Make a Webpage, by Phyllis Wheeler, they are aiming to instruct an 8-12 year old. I have to admit, I was very skeptical. I mean, if I cannot figure it out, will our children?

Guess what? The answer is yes. With very little parental involvement ( my husband) my children were able to create their own webpage! I couldn't believe it.

I have since gone through and attempted to create a web page for myself. While I am still working on it, can you say you can't teach an old dog new tricks? Actually, you can! And this book does, it just takes me a bit longer than the kiddos!

I have been very impressed on how spot on she has been with the instructions. She has included actual "snap shots" of what you will see on the screen. A BIG plus for me.

If you have any inclination to learn, or for your children to learn what I think are becoming very necessary computer skills, this book and this company is the answer!

This e-book retails for $29.95, however it is on sale for $19.95 right now.

Happy Computing!!!

My DD is also working on a website since we used the DVD "Web Design for Kids and Curious Grown-ups" she was motivated and this looks like it might have some answers for questions that she had about adding links etc. Thanks for posting the review!
