I enjoyed Transformers, but my Dad wasn’t too thrilled.  Check out John Campea’s review:

Transformers – 7-9 year old rating A+, Dad rating C

Up – 7-9 year old rating C-, Dad rating (fell asleep)

My friend showed me a website called FreeRice.com.  The site offers questions in a number of subjects including: Art, Chemistry, English, Geography, Language Learning and Math.  For each question you get right the site donates 10 grains of rice through the UN World Food Program.  Take a few minutes to help end hunger while exercising your brain.

According to the UN more than 25,000 people die from hunger or hunger-related causes each day.  While 10 grains of rice may seem like a small amount, it is important to remember that while you are playing, so are thousands of other people at the same time. It is everyone together that makes the difference. FreeRice has generated enough rice to feed millions of people since it started in October 2007.
