I thought today I would share some of my favorite websites with you. I don’t have a lot of time to surf, but these are sites I visit almost every day. Maybe you’ll find a few new faves and share some of yours with us.

1) The Jaunty Quills—oh, but you already knew about that one, right!

2) Free Rice —This website is run by Poverty.com, and it allows you to practice vocabulary. For each word you get right, they donate 20 grains of rice through the UN World Food Program. The words are hard! Try it. You’ll learn a new word (and help feed the hungry).

3) The Animal Rescue Site –This is one of those sites where you click and the sponsors donate money to help pay for food and care for animals. It also links to similar sites for the rainforest, literacy, hunger, breast cancer, and child health.

4) Vegan.com–I realize most of you aren’t vegetarians, much less vegans, but I thought since Oprah was doing that 21-day vegan challenge, some of you might be trying it too. I’m going to go vegan this summer (again), and I just love this site and the podcast. I can’t wait to try the top 10 recipes.

5) Kids-in-Mind–I think every parent should be familiar with this site. I’m a teacher, and it helps me choose which movies are appropriate to show my students. Check it out. It’s really objective.

So those are some of my favorites. What about you?
