Shidonni – virtual pets your draw
May 3, 2009 -- From Guy, a reader from Israel, who is affiliated with the site.
Shidonni is a web based virtual world for young children (5 to 12) , based on the simple joy of drawing characters and animals, but with a 21st century twist. After creating their drawings, children play with them as they magically ‘come alive’ in a wonderful animated world. It’s like crossing “Windows Paint” with a virtual pets game . From an educational perspective, Shidonni promotes kids’ 21st century computer literacy skills and supports early childhood creative development by focusing on creativity and imagination.
