Homework Resource
Have you ever had to go online to help your children complete their homework? My hand is raised! Especially, now as they get older, I find myself having to look up information or guide them to find a good resource. The great thing about Britannica Kids is it is safe. You don’t have to worry about your children surfing the internet to find what they’re looking for.
Almost every topic they will need to do research on is contained in one website that has a comprehensive library of 100,000+ articles and 60,000+ images & videos to help students find answers to homework assignments quickly and easily. In addition, skilled editors regularly update existing topics and add in new articles to cover all the events and history happening around us.

If your child is an auditory learner they will really enjoy the wealth of videos provided to teach students important facts. For example, did you know that just because deserts are dry doesn’t mean they are hot? The Gobi Desert in Central Asia is hot in the summer and very cold in the winter. There is also a cold desert known as Dry Valley that covers regions of Antartica where snow seldom falls. Very interesting, huh?

I love the convenience of Britannica Kids. We are a homeschool family that is always on the go. I have been known to do school work on the bleachers at sports practices, in the lobby of my family’s business, and in the car on trips! That is the beauty of this amazing online resource. If you have access to a smartphone, tablet, laptop, or desktop you can explore the world!
