How to navigate this blog

Each post will be a section of information in itself.

After each link will be in brackets ( ), the country that this information comes from.
For example, "LAW STUFF (Australia)", so that you can know that this information is appropriate for you if you are Australian kid or teen, and living in Australia.
Some information in the various posts will be international by nature, meaning that it could contain information for teens and kids all over the world, not just relevent to your country.

To look up the 'posts' that are relevent to where you live (country), click on the labels at the bottom of post, and the posts with information to do with your country will come up.

****** If you find that some of the sites you are interested in need 'logon' details or need/ask you to 'sign-up' for anything, ask for your parents, carers or guardians permission first.

****** The aim of providing the links for you with this blog is for you to be able to 'flick' through the information you find interesting without having to enter any details about yourself.


This is a very new blog, and the links I will post for you will need me to do little research on them to try and make sure they are the best I can find. So the links will build gradually.

I hope you find this blog interesting and easy to use.

Stay safe, happy and healthy.
