Children are bombarded with ads every time they watch TV or use the computer. How saavy are your children about advertising tricks?
There's a fun, educational site called "Don't Buy It: Get Media Smart" that helps kids learn about advertising. There are activities like figuring out what toy is really in the box based on the ad on the box. It's not as easy as it looks ... I got the first one wrong!
My favorite part of the site is their banner ads. They look just like real banner ads you see all over the web but when you click on the ad you see information about that type of ad.
This site does a wonderful job helping kids learn about advertising in a fun way. Best of all it's free!
