Dec. 3, 2008 - Motherboard Books - Let's Make a Webpage Review
I was able to review this wonderful little e-book entitled Let's Make a Web Page. Phyllis Wheeler, from Motherboard Books created it. (She also has Computer Science Curriculum at her site if you want to check that out too.) 
Let's Make a Web Page is suggested for ages 8-12 so I decided to let my two boys, ages 12 & 10 follow the directions and see what they could create. My 12 year old did fantanstic. He was able to follow the directions and make a great website. My 10 year old was timid and wanted me to basically "hold his hand" because he was afraid he was going to do the wrong thing. After encouraging him to just follow the directions, he was able to create a nice website. The directions are very easy to follow. My 10 year old is just afraid of new things sometimes. They both enjoyed the process.
We all had fun learning about making websites and are now confident enough to make more. I recommend this ebook to kids at least 10 years old or younger if your child is on the computer a lot.
They are running a special right now for $19.99 (regular price $29.99). They also offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. Gotta love it!
