Kids Free Fun Stuff

I created this section of Allkids back in 2000, when the internet was a wild, and sometimes nasty, place for children to visit. Today there's thousands of children's apps and ideas for fun and leisure stuff which are perfectly safe, but, I thought it a shame to simply delete this section.

Free Stuff

One of the best things about the internet is the amount of free stuff available, you can spend lots of time searching around finding free competitions, prize draws - sometimes simply for signing up for a newsletter or filling in a questionaire. Sometimes it's just a matter of giving your name and address to get a free sample. Quizzes are another way of spending a bit of time chilling out - better still if you can win a prize.

As parents and carers we all need a bit of time not thinking about day to day worries, but just switching off and browsing through some fun (and freebie) sites.
