Introduction

Introduction:

With customizable avatars called “Zelf”, freedom of choice and expression, and a surplus of places to go and things to do, Zookazoo is an immersive place where children can really have safe fun. ZooKazoo is an online environment of imaginary and adventurous destinations where children 6 through 12 can safely hang out, have fun, and even make their world a better place .[http://zookazoo.com/parents] It was created by five parents with extensive backgrounds in educational, technology, and media. The environment offers children an in depth opportunity to develop healthy personal and social skills they may implement in the real world. Children can be as creative as they want and share art, music, videos, form clubs, or build their own tree house. Friendships can be made with children from around the globe through the through real time chatting or sending a Zmail. Additionally, children get to learn about endangered species and plants, enjoy reading and writing, gain small motor and coordination skills, learn cooperative and collaborative skills, and practice personal responsibility and fair play.[http://zookazoo.com/parents] But it’s not just for children, parents can get involved too.
