Surfing the Net with Kids: Digital Photography
"For years I was the sole family photographer, dutifully recording our vacations and family get-togethers whenever I remembered to bring my camera along. Now I am joined by my teenage son, who has a digital camera. I, alas, am still analog. I love seeing his digital work, and really enjoy using his camera (when I’m allowed.) What’s the best part of digital photography? No film or developing costs to slow you down. Snap away -- it’s practically free. <!--"

If you would like to see your child’s art ""hanging"" on the Web, here are some sites that accept submissions."

Surfing the Net with Kids: Ansel Adams
"Ansel Adams was a twentieth-century photographer known for his black-and-white landscapes, efforts to preserve America’s wilderness, and his association with the Sierra Club. Adams understood how publishing could expand the audience for his work, and much of his popularity is due to the high-quality books and portfolios he published at prices much lower than those of an original print."

Surfing the Net with Kids: Interactive Coloring
"Many of the coloring pages found on the Net are the print-and-play variety. Print out the black and white picture and use your crayons to color them in. Today’s sites, however, are virtual coloring books you color, paint and draw right on your computer screen. These interactive coloring pages are great for preschoolers, kindergartners and budding artists of all ages."
