As a kid, I loved a lot of things--but one of my favorite things to do was surfing the web with my sister. We found the best websites to waste our time on, so I thought I would share a list of my favorite websites I would visit as a kid.
1. MyScene
My best friend and I spent most of our time on www.myscene.com. We could literally spend hours dressing up the characters, giving them makeovers, and doing their nails. I have no idea how a game could be so addictive, but I am pretty sure I would still love playing all these games today as I did when I was younger.
2. Millsberry
There were many websites a lot like this one, but Millsberry always was my personal favorite. It was always a great time when you had the chance to create a version of yourself online, and be able to play in a virtual world.
3. Brain Pop
One of the best feelings in the world was when my middle school teacher plugged up her computer to the projector so we could watch Brain Pop videos. They actually made learning fun and were such a great part of my middle school experience.
4. Cool Math
Along with Brain Pop, www.coolmath.com was another website that helped make education seem like a game. I would play the game "Lemonade Stand" for hours and hours, and I didn't even realize I was learning math while playing it.
5. Amanda Please
The fact that this website still exists is beyond my imagination. This website is unique because it doesn't make any sense at all, but at the same time, it makes complete since to me.
5. Addicting Games
This website probably gave my parent's computer a million viruses, but it was worth it (for me at least). The endless pop-ups were annoying, but some of the best games from my childhood were on this website.
6. Disney Channel
Disney Channel's website had some entertaining games, but in my opinion, the best games included the Lizzie McGuire/Miranda dressup and the Cadet Kelly game.
7. Space Jam
There is nothing really special about this website. I am just really confused why it is still on the internet and it still works.
8. Polly Pocket
The Polly Pocket website and the MyScene website pretty much went hand in hand. Reminiscing on this website made me want to go back to the time where I collected Polly Pockets and everything was a whole lot easier.
9. Postopia
I never really thought that a website based on cereal would be cool, but as a kid, this was one of the coolest websites to go on.
10. Neopets
I saved the best for last, because Neopets was my favorite website of all time as a kid. I would be lying if I said I didn't create a Neopet the other day just so I could play Meerca Chase.
