I have previously recommended a few websites for teen and tween girls such as A Stroke of Pink and the many girl sites in the Teen.com Network. I now have a few more websites to recommend:1. GirlMogul Magazine - Encouraging Self Esteem in Girls. "The GirlMogulMagazine blog is intended as a place for tween girls (ages 6-13) to read, enjoy and learn about all things girl power."
2. All Girl Arcade - a fun social game website for tweens and younger teen girls. The girls play games, make friends, watch videos and can decorate their page with virtual goods that they buy with with virtual game winnings. (Warning: This website plays music when you open it, so you might want to turn off your volume before you check it out).
Not all websites are for all people. But if you or your daughters or other teen girls that you know find even one new website today that you enjoy, I'll be happy.

As a mom of 2 grown daughters now, I think it's important that girls have healthy, creative online outlets, especially when recommended by parents.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review. It's good to know that there are positive sites for young girls that are not strictly about fashion, dieting, and boys.

I'm going to see if my niece knows about these.
ReplyDeleteI was browsing the internet looking for information on what parents care about in a site for their teen/tween children and I came across this blog.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, 2 of your links aren't working (Fortune Girls, Girl Ambition).
I'd love if you'd review SmartGirl.org, which is the site I run. We're dedicated to girls aged 11-19 and provide a space for them to share their opinions, experiences, and creativity. Most of the content is submitted by girls, and all of it is anonymous and moderated.
Megan, thanks for pointing out the bad links. I removed Fortune Girls because it looks like it no longer exists. For Girl Ambition, it looks like it might just be temporarily down, so I left it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the information about SmartGirl. I will definitely give it a look.
Hi Jennifer! My daughter and I are the owners of MyGurlStuff.com, the 757's Premier Website for Teen Girls. Our website has been existence since September 2005. We'd love it if you would stop by our website. It's still evolving and growing.
ReplyDeleteWe really enjoyed Megan's website, SmartGirl.org and All Girl Arcade. Thanks for the recommendations. We plan to add both to our Cool Links page plus we will be adding your blog spot.
I'm glad I found your blog!
Hi Jennifer! Me and my girl friends loved your websites. My mother showed us these websites, all of these websites are very fun,and cool!
ReplyDeleteI really liked SmartGirl.org and Girl Ambition. Thanks for introducing me and my friends to these websites!
Hey, Jennifer! This is a great list of websites for teen girls. Another good one is http://www.fitsmi.com It's a website for teen girls who want to make healthy changes. It's pretty cool!
ReplyDeleteummm.....im a tween myself and.. umm.... i know some more web hang outs w/ games....TTYL (talk, to, you, l8r)
ReplyDeleteA great social site for Tweens/Teens and their parents is Scallyroo.com. Parents are able to monitor their child's account through a really neat "Parent Dashboard" tool on the site.

ReplyDeleteYou've posted some pretty nice sites so far!
ReplyDeleteIf I may be so bold (which I am, so I hope it's okay) I have a website called MOMS are from MARS: a teen girl's guide to weird mothers. It's filled with lots of tongue-in-cheek advice for teen girls on a bunch of different issues, with my main focus on MOM'S BLOG.
Anyway, I'd love it if you would check it out and let me know what you think!
