Girl Scouts of the USA - This is a wonderful site for girls and parents alike. There's information about finding your local girl scout councils and events, as well as lots of pages dedicated to girl's questions, thoughts and stories.

KidSites.com - I love this site! It's a neat "hub" for all your needs when it comes to looking for child-safe sites. I particularly liked the links to online games for children. The educational links could be helpful for homeschooling moms.
