Free Games - Win Prizes!!

Gamesville.com is the premiere purveyor of fine, free online games and is famous for its uncanny ability to waste people's time for hours on end.

What kind of games do they offer? Free games such as bingo, cards, puzzles, board games, and more. You can even create your own stylish Gamesville Avatar to capture your unique essence.

But what really sets them apart from other game sites is that they specialize in online game shows, not just online games.

What's the difference?

Most game sites focus on games you play by yourself or games you play against a couple other people. While Gamesville has those kinds of games too (they especially proud of their Spades game and Hot Streak Solitaire), they excel at massively multiplayer games where it's you versus hundreds—or even thousands—of people all competing, in real time, to get the highest score or win the cash jackpot.

Gamesville game shows, such as Three-Eyed Bingo and Magic 21, run on a continuous basis, 24 hours a day, and last for a specific amount of time. Between one game ending and the next game starting, there is a brief intermission (aka, the Gamesville Emercial®) which features commercials — that is, advertisements that the sponsors have paid to display to you. These commercials help pay for the games and prizes that they offer.

In a very real way, their games are online — and interactive — game shows, operating on a similar kind of model to our TV counterparts. Except, instead of you watching a handful of contestants vie for a prize, you actually get to compete and win!

It's a little unusual-but given that they are in their twelfth year of being in business they must be doing something right. So go play today! Visit Gamesville

Free Children's Nutrition Website - Games, learning

Nourishinteractive.com is devoted to helping our children become nutritionally aware. Our kids are bombarded everyday with ads promoting empty calories and high sugar foods. We want to empower children to make healthier choices. Nourish Interactive is a website that provides parents and children with a variety of tools to learn the key elements of nutrition. We designed the website so that every tool and article has a parents' version and a child's version. This way parents and children can work together to make nutrition a key part of their everyday lives.

Nutrition is extremely important for our children's development and long-term health. Unfortunately, there are many indications that kids are not eating the nutritionally balanced meals their bodies need. We need to start teaching children about the importance of nutrition at a young age before they have formed their habits. We can't rely on the schools because they are too busy with reading, writing and math. We know the internet is a growing part of everyone's lives, so why not take advantage of some of that time and have children learning about nutrition.

Nourish Interactive.com offers two key areas:

1. Free features:

• A valuable resource for children's nutrition
  
• Free interactive Tools that parents can use to assess their child's current nutritional status and take steps to improve it
  
• Free games for children to play that help promote positive messages about nutrition and drive healthier choices
  
• New topics monthly for both parents and kids

2. Free Sign Up for the Online Nutrition Game:

• In order to access the complete game, you will need to create a free account. This account is required so that we can track the child's test scores and send parent/teachers progress reports.
  
• The online game, "Chef Solus and the Food Pyramid Adventure" game is available both in English and Spanish
  
• Progress reports are available for each level of the game that the child has completed. These progress reports provide an easy way for parents to review the key concepts their child has just learned.
  
• Progress reports are available in English and Spanish.
  
• A colorful certificate is provided for each level completed that can be to printed and posted. It is customized with the child's name.
  
• We also provide activity suggestions that are simple and fun for the whole family.

With Nourish Interactive and the main character, Chef Solus, children will get the idea that nutrition is fun.

Join Chef Solus and Nourish Interactive on a fun nutritional adventure as we work together to build a new generation of nutritionally-minded children.
