Default Favorite interactive online resources?

I have kids 4th grade and younger - here are a few of our favorite places to play:

Math:
ww.dreambox.com (free trial, followed by monthly fee)
Sheppard Software: Fun free online learning games and activities for kids.

Reading/spelling:
Starfall's Learn to Read with phonics
Spelling & Vocabulary Website: SpellingCity

Any other great places you use?? New things are always more fun

Time 4 Learning is one of our favorites, Click N Kids, Click N Spell and I have so much more. They are all so great... and it helps to use different ones so your child does not get tired of just one.

My lil' boy loves starfall too! and he really is enjoying Reading Eggs. I got it for a year for just $16.75 through the Homeschool Buyers Co-op and it's really good.

Thanks for the sharing!
Our favorite is beestar. DD has been using it for math and reading at home. It The worksheets are problem-solving type, good to help kids thinking. DD has made remarkable progress.

I was wondering if anyone knows of any aps for the ipod for math games. My daughter is in the 5th grade and this is her weak spot. She goes to a private school and there is not a lot of extra help for the kids when they are weak in an area.

I agree with those that have mentioned Starfall's Learn to Read with phonics. Great free site. We have also found some great learning games on Disney and Nick Jr.com.

There is a new reading website called readingbear.org. It is completely free. It has several presentations that sound out large numbers of words.

I should also mention Gudli.com, which is another completely free website. It teaches reading, math and science.
