Togetherville is a web 2.0 tool that is absolutely wonderful for kids 12 and under who are at the age in which they are capable of spelling and reading. Through Togetherville, kids can connect and communicate with family and friends in a safe online neighborhood. It’s very similar to Facebook, but of course a younger version. Also, because you cannot become a member of Facebook until the age 13, Togetherville makes it possible for the younger kids to get the same fun and fulfillment as their parents and older sibling do. Young kids can not only chat, but also be able to play games and share scores; create their own artwork through given applications on the program; share pictures; and watch videos. More importantly, Togetherville benefits those children who are shy, quiet and maybe don’t have the best communication skills just yet. Also, parents have parental control and help their child set up the this online program, in which they help create safe neighborhoods of family and friends. Overall, Togetherville enhances communication skills, creativity, and helps kids learn technological tools they will need to know for school and at home. Therefore, Togetherville is not only about having fun with family and friends, it also can be viewed as a learning tool because it has different applications that stimulate the brain, in which children learn and have fun at the same time. In conclusion, Togetherville is like a virtual world for kids and best of all, the program is free, fun and safe.
