I like finding good websites for kids and FistGov for Kids is an excellent website. It's the U.S. government interagency Kids' Portal which "provides links to Federal kids' sites along with some of the best kids' sites from other organizations all grouped by subject."

All in London - Your London Guide
This site is chock-full of useful information about London. My favourite feature is the City Guide - select a category and click on the appropriate link and you will also get a link to the nearest transport. It's a fantastic resource! Let me give you an example. Let's say you decide to visit London and you want to see the most popular tourist attraction, The London Eye (and it definitely deserves to be so popular - I've been on it three times and I wouldn't hesitate to go on it again!) so you look under the heading London Entertainment and click on Visitor Attractions, scroll down and click on The British Airways London Eye which brings you to a page with information about the attraction as well as a link to the official London Eye site .
And that's not all. The All in London Guide also provides a link to the nearest transport. So on the same page with information about the London Eye, you will see Nearest Transport: Underground with links to Waterloo and Westminster. And you will see after you click on Waterloo (or Westminster), it leads to another page of useful information with links to a tube map or a street map and other useful information such as station facilities and more links! If you want to know what there is to do near Waterloo, you simply click on Attractions and things to do near Waterloo.
Explore the site and see for yourself how much information is available. It's a useful resource for visitors as well as residents.
