Thank you so much for letting your children visit our Safari
Kids site! We want these pages to be a safe and enjoyable
experience for your children. Many of the activities do
require extra software which can be downloaded free from the
internet. Information is listed below on where to download the
software and how to change some of your computer settings if the
need arises. We hope you and your children spend many happy
hours playing games, coloring, working puzzles and just generally
enjoying yourselves on this site! Come back often as new
things will be added every month! |
What is Adobe Reader and why do I need it?
Adobe Reader is software that allows you to download and read PDF
files. PDF stands for Portable Document Format and is one of
the most universally used methods for downloading documents from the
Web. Because of this, we have chosen to use this format for
all of our coloring pictures, mazes and other downloadable content.
The software is easy to use and simple to download. Simply
click the link below to install this powerful tool on your home
computer. |
