I came across a few sites that could be used for word fun and learning tonight on a blog I read regularly.

Does anyone have anything else "wordy" online that we and our kids might like?

the blog post-

The post has a link to another resource that folks here might find useful for online activities (many interesting links here, I'm still clicking around)

Some sites from these resources I thought were particularly cool-
http://visuwords.com/ visual dictionary
http://www.wordnik.com/ they call it a "dictionary on steroids"
http://www.periodicvideos.com/videos/008.htm not words, videos on the elements

another site I was reminded of -
http://www.wordle.net/ word cloud generator
