Ithaki for Kids
http://www.ithaki.net/kids/

A metasearch of children's search engines. It removes the duplicates, ranks the results and
shows them in one page. Ithaki 4 Kids also let you find MP3s and images.

KidsClick! http://sunsite.berkeley.edu/KidsClick!/

This search engine was created for children by librarians who wanted an appropriate database of websites appropriate for young people. It is not meant to be a filter. There is no advertising on the KidsClick page, and students will like the way that the information is categorized.

Yahooligans! http://yahooligans.com/
Like Yahoo, but screens out much undesirable material.
