Freakatars, a new kid-targeted "creating and collecting" combo social community and interactive game online site and offline play, has launched into phase one of public beta at www.freakatars.com . Designed for K3-11, Freakatars lets users create and care for their own creations, and plan also to add limited edition parts, virtual goods and games among other features. Founded and helmed by Adam Jacobs, Freakatars.com is currently free, but upcoming plans include a subscription plan for Q3 2009, as well as selling virtual and physical goods and collector cards. Get going now and you can start saving up your Freakies to acquire stuff later.
Call for creative kids:
Arthur is getting a new pal for his PBS Kids Go! series, and is looking to real kids to help create that friend. Arthur and CVS Caremark All Kids Can, a program designed to make life easier for kids with disabilities, are teaming for the Arthur/All Kids can Character Search. Kids 6-12 are invited to submit their ideas for a new character, specifically one with a unique ability, trait, or disability, with a drawing and description of what makes that character special from February 1 through March 31, 2009. Entry forms and rules can be found from February 1 at www.pbskidsgo.org/arthur/allkidscan. The kid with the winning character will be featured in a live-action segment on an episode of Arthur, and Arthur creator/author Marc Brown will visit their town.
