Gracie Beans

Welcome to Gracie Beans where kids of all ages can hang out and have fun. Our mission is to create a safe virtual world for children to explore. We are created by family for family. This is a place where parents, grandparents and caregivers can find and share information on parenting and family. We'll be there for you every step of the way to share, learn, love and laugh.

We have a two special pages for grown-ups. We are your one stop spot for parenting tips and advice. We will cover everything from pre-pregnancy to college. You can find interactive tools, links to great sites full of information and stories from other parents. Next is Safety. This section contains useful information on internet safety, as well as saftey at home and play. You can find links to the best web sites, tips, information and more interactive features.

We couldn't leave out the most important reason for this site. The kids! We have The Fun Zone featuring an arcade with games, links to way cool sites with activities for kids to get their creative minds working. There are links to pages where kids can create their own stories, paint or draw and print their own pictures and tons more. Don't tell the kids but some are even educational. They'll have so much fun they won't know they're learning! And of course we a have a wacky virtual zoo! This is where kids can interact with our virtualpets. You can feed them, care for them and even play with them. You can also adopt your own! Some of ours are unusual. You have to see it to believe it! For the "older" crowd , we have the tweens & teens area with more games, gizmos & gadgets for their web pages and MySpace pages. There are also links to sites on teen issues like dating, prom, driving, puberty and health.

We would like to invite you to visit our forum The Family Room. This is an area for you to get to know other parents and grandparents to share good times, laughs and ideas. There's also a special area just for kids. We look forward to getting to know you. Please know that we will be monitoring the interactive areas of this site to maintain it's safe, family oriented quality. As we grow we will be adding more on Safety Online and Offline, Parenting Resources, Activites, an Updates page and possibly a newsletter. We are always looking for new ideas, websites and activities. If you have any to share please send an email to Gracie Beans
