The websites are perfect for kids. They are the websites that coordinate with the characters on the easy link pad. Barney, Elmo, Wiggles, etc. I have no problems leaving my kids alone on the computer with the easy link. The other nice thing is that they have to have a password to get out of easylink. That keeps them from leaving the system and going into other parts of the computer such as the internet.

The only web sites kids can access are those related to the characters they put in the slot (eg. Elmo = Sesame Street, Puppy = Fisher Price). Kids can’t get to any other web sites or your computer files. This is a GREAT learning tool for children.

Yes the only web sites the child can access are the ones related to the figure. If she inserts the mickey then she can only go to mickeys site. I love this thing.

Summary
  • The Easy Link Internet Launch pad makes it easy for kids to visit preschool appropriate websites to play online games!
  • It connects easily to your computer via USB and when kids plug a character figure into the Easy Link Internet Launch pad, they are taken directly to that character's website.
  • Once a character is plugged in, kids are only allowed to visit pages on that website until they plug in a different character, keeping them away from unsafe websites and from getting into your computer's files.
  • Kids play the online games on the different websites by using your computer's current mouse and the arrow keys on the Easy-Link Internet Launch pad.
  • 3 easy link figures included are Elmo, Dragonland, and Fisher-Price. (8 additional Easy-Link figures sold separately) When parents want to go back to normal computer use, they can enter a pass code to turn the Easy Link off.
