Title: Disney.com
Format: Website
Review: This is Disney's online presence and it is very comprehensive. If you want to find out about anything Disney you can find it here. They have information on their parks, TV, movies, music, live events, stores, merchandise, characters, games, videos, even recipes for Disney related treats. It is overwhelming! I literally got lost on the site, not because it was unorganized, but because you click on one thing and then see something else interesting and click on that, and then 3 hours later you are still navigating the site. I can now see why all my 3rd graders always asked if they could go on Disney.com during computer lab time at school. It is addicting! Unfortunately, school policies restricted the site for student access due to its lack of educational merit. But the bright colors and heavy imagery make it stimulating for anyone especially tweens. And the topics are very popular. what tween is not interested in TV, music, and merchandise by their favorite pop stars like Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato, the Jonas Brothers, Selena Gomez, Zac Efron, I know I have left some out, but they are everywhere! This is a good site for tweens to explore on a social level. There is very little academic merit, but it allows tweens a safe and fun place to enjoy online, with no risk for parents to worry about and really encourages good, clean fun.
