Mystery Net’s Kids Mysteries Interactive Website


© Jillian Louise Gregory

Can you believe the year 2005 has arrived? I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season and break from school. You might feel stressed about being back in the classroom. It's that time of year when we wipe the cobwebs from our brains and get back to our normal routine. I have found an awesome website to write about this month instead of a book review.

The website is called Mystery Net's Kids Mysteries: mysteries to solve, scary stories, and magic tricks at http://kids.mysterynet.com/. This interactive website will get your detective juices flowing! There are three main sections to the website that include: Solve-it, Mysteries by Kids, and Magic Tricks.

Solve-it
Can you solve the "Case of the Disappearing Dimes" or the "Case of the Ruined Roses"? These short online stories allow you to try to solve the case by picking the correct suspect character. The culprit is revealed with an explanation as to how the main character solved the case. Plus, you can see which suspect other readers chose. There are presently almost thirty cases to solve.

Mysteries by Kids
They start the story and you finish writing the mini-mystery. They have contests in which you can enter your completion of the story. If you win, your story is published on the website!

Magic Tricks
Learning Magic Tricks can be fun and wow your friends and family. They provide nearly thirty magic tricks. They show you what supplies you need, how to set it up, and how to perform the trick.

Now I'm off to solve a few of the mysteries...

Thanks. Yes, I figured they could have fun reading and writing. It not only relieves stress, but gets them back into the "school" mode.
