Are you a fan of Monster High? We think the books and dolls are kinda fang-tastic… so we thought we’d share two cool webisodes from the Monster High crew. Hope you enjoy them!

Happy Safer Internet Day!

February 8th, 2011 by Anthea | 8 Comments | Filed in websites

Hi girls!

Happy Safer Internet Day! Today is all about making sure you’re super safe online! In honour of this awesome day, we called up our pal Aunt Arctic from Club Penguin! As advice columnist and editor of the Club Penguin Times, the weekly newspaper in the popular virtual world of Club Penguin (clubpenguin.com), Aunt Arctic is accustomed to giving words of wisdom.

Club Penguin is celebrating Safer Internet Day!

So when it came to putting together information on online safety for kids and families, we asked her to provide some tips.

Aunt Arctic says…

Parents:

  • Keep the computer in an area where it’s easy to supervise internet use.
  • Teach your kids how to stay safe online.
  • Research and visit appropriate children’s websites.
  • Ask lots of questions about what your child is doing online.
  • Use parental controls and software.

Kids:

  • Never give out personal information, such as your name, age, location, phone number or school.
  • Don’t share your password with anyone except a trusted grown-up.
  • Choose a username that’s different from your real name.
  • Tell a trusted adult if someone asks you for personal information online, or does anything that makes you uncomfortable.

For more information on safety at Club Penguin, visit: support.clubpenguin.com/help/help/safety.htm

In fact, why don’t you print out these online safety tips and post them near your home computer for the whole family to see!

Happy browsing girls!

Let’s Go Surfing

February 22nd, 2010 by Bec | 30 Comments | Filed in websites

Hey there,

We hope you had a fantabulous weekend!

We got lots of emails over the weekend from Girl Power readers recommending their fave websites, so we decided to share some of them with you! Check them out next time you’re surfing the web, and don’t forget to post a comment below telling us what you think…

Wonderful Website #1

www.playbubblestruggle.com

“This is a fantastic arcade style game where you have to burst all the bubbles without them hitting you or before the time runs out! It’s sooo addictive: once you start playing, you’ll play it again and again and again.” Emma

Wonderful Website #2

www.gogirlhq.com

“Some of you might love the Go Girl! books like me, or just want to check the web page out! Well if you want to check this site out (I recommend you do) go onto: www.gogirlhq.com, it is one of my fave sites.” Emily

Wonderful Website #3

www.poptropica.com

“I know a really cool website called Poptropica it’s really awesome. You get to make a little character with a wacky name then go walk around all the islands and complete the task on each island to earn money to buy cool costumes for your character to wear. It is really fun and challenging.” Georgia

What about you, do you have a fave website?

Christmas Present Ideas

December 4th, 2009 by Girl Power Magazine | 5 Comments | Filed in Stuff, Wisdom, websites

Has everyone picked out what they’re getting their loved ones for Christmas yet? I’ve got an idea for Mum (perfume), and my sister (jewellery) but my Dad? Well… he’s always a tough one!

Every year I get my dad the same thing – a puzzle! He LOVES puzzles, but I want to get him something different this year. He’s a very hard man to get presents for. Have you guys got any suggestions?

This year I’m doing something really generous! I’m buying all my friends a gift donation from Oxfam Unwrapped and the World Vision Smiles Catalogue. Every gift I buy will go towards helping those in need and it can be as little as $5 for new colouring pencils! The donation will be sent on behalf of my friends and I’m sure they’ll love getting a card explaining how their gift is helping others.

So remember to give generously this Christmas!

Mel xx
