Fun Sites for Kids who Love God

This is a collection of websites designed to provide spiritually wholesome entertainment and fun learning to children
aged 5 to 12 and to those of us who wished they had such enjoyable and enriching programs when they were
young. The web address of this page (www.everjoyful.ej.am) is based on 2 Bible verses:
"Be joyful always" (1 Thessalonians 5:16) and "Let all who take refuge in You rejoice; let them sing joyful praises
forever. Spread Your protection over them, that all who love Your name may be filled with joy." (Psalm 5:11).
For more verses on being joyful, click here.

Note to Parents: Some of the sites below require certain media players in order to enjoy their audio or visual
features. If your computer doesn't have a required player, you can download any of these players for free by clicking
on the following links as needed:
Windows Media Player ~ RealPlayer ~ Quicktime ~ Adobe Reader ~ Adobe Flash Player ~ Adobe Shockwave Player

Click here to email me with suggestions of other sites that you think should be added here. Just make sure that the site
is wholesome and doesn't include unsafe links or search engines that could take a child to inappropriate sites that would
violate Philippians 4:8 which should be every Christian's motto: "Finally, my friends, keep your minds on whatever is true,
pure, right, holy, friendly, and proper. Don't ever stop thinking about what is truly worthwhile and worthy of praise."
