I was really looking forward to the Club Penguin Fall Fair and it didn't let me down. This was my first fair at Club Penguin so I didn't know what to expect. As soon as i signed on, I could tell that this was gonna be a very fun day. The whole Island looked different. Everything was colorful and flashy. The map doesn't show you where all the different minigames and activities are so it was fun exploring. I found an awesome surprise on the Iceberg and in the sewer.

Wizard 101 is a new MMO game from Kings Isle Entertainment that is designed especially for kids and their families. These days it seems like new kids online game's are a dime a dozen. Some companies throw together a game for kids just to get it on the profits. After my experience with Wizard 101 I know that this is definitely not one of those games. In fact Wizard 101 is in a league of it's own when it comes to kid-friendly MMO's.

UB Funkeys is an online kids game with some very unique aspects. First of all you can't just sign up and download the game online. In order to play UB Funkeys your child needs to buy a starter pack at the store. Which should cost you about $19.95. The starter kit comes with one big UB Funkey and two little ones. It
also comes with a cd you use to download the game.

If you've played U.B. Funkeys before you know that no matter what Funkey you have, mini games are the best way to earn coins. Who doesn't need more coins? Especially in U.B. Funkeys because you can buy all sorts of cool stuff for your Funkey, your crib, and even your pet! Since I love playing mini games (and love getting coins) I decided to give other U.B. Funkey players some tips and insight into the mini games.

MapleStory is a free-to-play online game that is aimed towards a younger crowd. When kids play MapleStory they enter the wondrous Maple World. Their job is to protect this world from all the monsters that are trying to destroy it. One unique thing about MapleStory that I think makes it so popular with kids is that hunting and engaging in battles are not the only things you can do in the Maple World.

I couldn't wait to see what it was like to play MapleStory as a fearless warrior! I already had a bowman and magician characters so I decided to see what the MapleStory journey would be like as a warrior. Although I usually go for the character who can fight monsters from a distance, there was something about being face to face with a monster that sounded exciting. So I signed in and created a new character.

La Tale is an online game with cute and colorful graphics. It has a fantastical story line with a clear distinction of good vs evil. All of the players are a part of that story and join together together to fight evil.
The first thing we were definitely impressed with was that although the game has anime inspired graphics, the characters are very cute and modest looking. As a matter of fact players themselves look like just like kids!

If parents were to join together and create the perfect MMO for their children to play, I think it would look a lot like Emerald Island. Not only is the game safe and educational but it encourages imagination by showing kids that they can make an impact in the real world too!
