Kids are responding to the idea of a safe internet hub.

Flying_wij WebbliWorld was launched back in July last year, so we're now celebrating a year 'on the net'! We've learned a lot since then about what kids look for and how they use the internet. What they are responding to overwhelmingly is the idea of a safe 'hub', where we bring the best content from around the web into WebbliWorld. They email regularly with suggested sites and games to include. We check all these suggestions and include everything suitable. (So many games sites have plenty of great, appropriate games but also feature violent and adult material.) I think this really proves that most kids don't want to go on 'unsuitable' sites, they want to be in a place that is meant for them but that is fun, exciting and challenging, too.

We've always known that the user-experience is key, which is why we are now embarking on a new phase of development that will make WebbliWorld even more fun and interactive.

Here's to another fantastic year!
