Like I said, people send me links. This time it was www.Time4Learning.com. They say they're "children’s educational and entertainment online subscription service for ages 3 to 9".
I went and looked at the site and some of their free examples - and it seems like a quality service. It has learning activities and games and worksheets for K-5 language arts and math.
Like I read in a news article recently, children don't differentiate between entertainment and education - they learn and absorb whether they are watching a violent cartoon movie or an educational clip. I would definitely opt for the latter.
So I posted the link at my site's educational links page.
