Apparently, the government mandates kids sections for all of their web sites. Of course, you’d expect sites like the EPA, the Library of Congress, and NASA to have kids areas. But it seems to hold true for all agencies:
- Yucca Mountain
- Social Security Administration
- Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms
- National Security Administration
- Centers for Disease Control
- Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
- Nuclear Regulatory Commission
- Maritime Administration at the Department of Transportation
- Central Intelligence Agency
- Clerk of the House of Representatives
- Department of Veterans Affairs
- National Center for Education Statistics
- Overseas Private Investment Corporation
- National Geo-Spatial Intelligence Agency
- Mine Safety and Health Administration
- Truman Library
- Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau
- Minerals Management Service
- Office of Legislative and Public Affairs of the National Science Foundation
This started out as a real brief sojourn but I just couldn’t believe some of the stuff that the government thinks kids might be interested in. {via}
