"Cookie" : A Great Website for Learning at Home!

I bet that many of you have had teachers recommend "Starfall" for continued at-home learning with your children.  It is a fun and easy to navigate site, geared towards preschool through early elementary years.

But I recently have begun exploring and using a new website, that was recommended to me as "better than Starfall".  It is called "Cookie".

What is "Cookie"?  The website answers this question in their following statement.
"At cookie, child experts and educators design interactive online games for kids. Our learning games for kids help in building skills needed for success in school. While playing our fun educational games, kids learn to read with phonics, build skills in math, language, social studies, science and much more. Our educational videos encourage children to keep learning, even after school hours.e playing our fun educational games, kids learn to read with phonics, build skills in math, language, social studies, science and much more.

A sampling of the "Language Lessons", all terrific for supplementing receptive/expressive language goals for  4K through 5th grade, is shown below.
