Big Fat Awesome House Party This Cartoon Network game " provides a great solution for you and your kid, as it promotes positive social values like sharing the workload of chores and housekeeping, helping friends, and having responsible fun."

Club Penguin " The Club is a complete virtual world where kids can do anything from socializing to taking care of virtual pets. The world is populated by "penguins," each of whom is a real live user. Your child's penguin can talk to other penguins, and even play games like Mancala and Connect Four with other live players. The format of Club Penguin encourages children to keep up relationships with online buddies, kids from around the world. Unlike many kids' games online, Club Penguin is monitored by virtual babysitters. If a penguin says or does anything unsavory or inappropriate, they are banned from the game. This keeps Club Penguin safe for kids of all ages, and it means that you can let your kid play without fear."
