CuriousKids.com is put together by a bunch of--what else?--curious kids. The most curious of those "kids" is a family of seven (the two biggest kids are the parents) who are sharing their long-dreamed-of world tour with all who would like to accompany them! Individuals and classrooms from all over can participate in this remarkable odyssey to faraway places.

REVIEW:
Here's a chance to follow an extraordinary family as they take an extraordinary tour of the world. The kids range in age from 7 to 17, so there is a peer at virtually every grade level. Classrooms are invited to participate by helping to create special sections about some of the places the family will be visiting. The family will then complete the "travel guides" with photographs and personal anecdotes from their trips. E-mail communication with cyber travelers is encouraged. Teachers, get out your cyber passports and get ready for some high adventure with this bunch of curious kids!
