Cyberkids have spoken. Nickelodeon tops their list of best Web sites.
Kids in grades 1-12 were asked to nominate their favorite sites for fun and learning as part of the "Kids Pick the Best of the Web." The project was sponsored by the American Association of School Librarians and KidsConnect, an online question-answer service for students.
More than 800 children voted for their favorite sites. The Top 10:
1. Nickelodeon: http://www.nick.com
