at what age can toddlers start using computers?

Becles

Dorling Kindsley sell toddler software. My two had a couple of their discs. I can't remember what they were called, but it was mainly matching pictures, learning colours and counting and things like that. They used to like a game where you had to make pairs such as put the toothbrush with toothpaste.

I think they were just under 2 when they started playing that, and they enjoyed the websites mentioned already.

My 10 year old loves e-mail now, and has more contacts in his address book than me

He's been told only to speak to the people in his address book who I know. I know his password, and can log in if I get suspicious!

My DD's both love playing on word they type away like mummy does it all come's out gobbledy but that is the fun of it they then print it out and show us what they have done.
I also recommend Cbeebies and nicjr but also try https://www.educationcity.com a great curriculum based website for kids at nursery onwards try the free trial first my girls love it!

My son is nearly 3. He can navigate the Cbeebies site better than I can find my way through this one. He can also shut the pc down properly and this morning I discovered he can also delete my emails.:eek:

Not gone further than Cbeebies yet as there's lots to do on it but he's ready to try some different ones so thanks for the ideas.
