Discover Tools for Young Researchers!
|
Hey Reader! As the school year winds down, I’m noticing lots of classrooms diving into research projects. But for our youngest learners, traditional search engines can quickly become overwhelming and hard to navigate.

These sites are either designed specifically for children or include safe, easy-to-use search features that make research more accessible for early learners. Kid-Friendly Research Tools to Explore: 🎥 Want to see how these tools work in action? Watch the Video Now ⤵️ (Note: DK Find Out! was featured in the video but has recently been discontinued.
