Yellowstone National Park’s Official Page for Kids
"Start your game session with Antler & Horn Match by clicking on the antlers or horns which belong to the pictured animal. Do you know the difference between horns and antlers? Antlers, found on male deers, are part of the animal’s skull. Horns, found on sheep, bison, and many other bovines, are a two-part structure: an interior of skull bone covered by a sheath similar to our fingernails. Pre-readers will like the alphabet and coloring pages. Older kids can join in the Yellowstone Website Scavenger Hunt, and test their Yellowstone knowledge with a quiz."

Wild-Eyed Alaska
Imagine watching a bald eagle close up. Or joining a puffin inside its burrow. Or plunging over rocky cliffs into the water to gaze at giant barnacles and other sea life. Now you can do all this and more virtually. Wild-Eyed Alaska is a collection of six videos created by remote-control cameras on Gull Island in Kachemak Bay. Kachemak Bay (about 200 miles south of Anchorage on the Kenai Peninsula) is the largest of twenty-three sites in the U.S. National Estuarine Research Reserve System and the only one in Alaska.

Who is Emma Lazarus?
"Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, the wretched refuse of your teeming shore. These words are the most quoted of Emma Lazarus’ poem "The New Colossus" which adorns the base of the State of Liberty. Lazarus was born in New York City in 1849, and was a published poet and author by age twenty-five. In 1883, she published the poem to raise money for the construction of the pedestal for the Statue of Liberty. Unfortunately Lazarus didn’t live to see her poem placed on a bronze plaque at Lady Liberty’s feet in 1901. To read the poem, click on Forward on the bottom of this biography page."

White House in Miniature
"John and Jan Zweifel and a dedicated corps of family and friends have spent more than 500,000 hours over 38 years building this 50-foot [White House] replica. On a scale of one foot to one inch, every piece of furniture is hand carved, every rug is hand stitched, and every wall is hand painted. Since 1976, an estimated 43 million visitors have seen this miniature, which includes private White House rooms not on the public tour. Each year the Zweifels update the decorative details in their White House miniature to reflect changes made to its life-size twin."

White House Historical Society
"For students of all ages, the White House Historical Society is my pick of the day. Reasons to visit include the fabulous White House tour (requires the Flash plug-in); White House history and time line; Photographer’s Gallery; White House statistics and Q&A (look under Did You Know and the Spotlight Questions Archive.) Other don’t-miss-them goodies are the selection of printable coloring pages (found under Visiting), desktop wallpaper (look under Association) and the great selection of lesson plans for teachers and homeschoolers (access them in the Learning Center.)"
