Michael W's Top Web Picks

Every month, we choose a boy to give us his favorite web sites.

Michael W. is 8 years old and lives with his parents and sister Brenna inOntario, Canada. Michael and Brenna (who's the Girl's navigator thismonth) picked mostly Canadian sites because they want everyone to knowthat Canada has just as much good stuff as that little country belowit! (More, actually!!)

* I like collecting rocks. For a report I had to do about minerals, Ifound this website. I was able to download pictures of differentminerals and stuff. What's really good about it is, they have a storewhere you can buy samples of rocks and minerals.Internet Rock Shop.

* I like this website because you can make your computer do stupid things, like make a farting noise. Ontario ScienceMuseum.

* Our dad works for the railroad, so we get to ride on rains for free. Atthe VIA website I'm able to download pictures of trains, and see mapswith different routes we've taken. Rail Canada.

* I really like this website. They have a magazine, too. My favouritepart is Mighty Mite Adventures, which is about these three kids who have a lot of adventures every month. Owl Magazine.

* The Skydome is where the Toronto Blue Jays, the Argonauts and theRaptors play their home games. It's really neat! You should go theresome day! Skydome.

* Guess what? The world's tallest building isn't in New York City orTokyo. Click here to find out where it is. Youcan even ride on it!

* I love Sega and this is their website: Sega.

* Almost everyone I know plays hockey, it's the national sport. Some ofthe best players in the world are Canadian -- even on the Americanteams! The Hockey Hall of Fame is in Toronto, where I live. It's thehome of the Stanley Cup. On this site you can find out more abouthockey players, the history of hockey and you can also buy stuff in thecyberstore. Hockey Hall of Fame.

* IMy sister made me put this in because she loves Animorphs. She's biggerthan me so I let her. Animorphs.

* I've never been to the West Edmonton Mall but my friend has. He went tothe Waterpark, which he really liked. They wouldn't let him on the Dropof Doom because they said he's too young. When I go, I'm going on theMindbender. It's a roller coaster that has a 14-storey drop!West Edmonton Mall.
