This search engine is designed specifically for children’s interests, homing in on popular content that appeals to young Web viewers while filtering out potentially harmful sites. KidRex works like a Google search engine, but it also has some kid-friendly design features, including a giant image of a Tyrannosaurus Rex. Parents and teachers may find the site to be a reliable resource as well, with its regularly updated content added to the custom-search option. A parents’ page includes information about Web safety with recommendations about how to protect children while they surf the Internet.
