Togetherville<\/strong>, a social network<\/strong> for children ages 6 to 10, aims to attract children to a more age-appropriate setting. The site launches Tuesday night. The accounts must be created by the parents using their own Facebook<\/strong> logins. Parents are able to approve or reject their children\u2019s friends and see what activities or games their children are up to. Mandeep Singh Dhillon<\/strong>, CEO and co-founder, said \u201cThe adults participate directly. Which is why this is not a digital babysitter.\u201d \u201cThe first platform that really integrates young children\u2019s ability to use the Web with their grownups close by.\u201dKids will have separate logins to Togetherville<\/strong>, and the site looks different depending whether the child or the parent is logged in. There are games, pre-screened YouTube videos and other activities for children. Stephen\u00a0 Balkam<\/strong>, CEO of the Washington DC-based noprofit Family Online Safety Institute<\/em>, termed the site as a \u201cmuch safer environment.\u201d The site aims to keep children safe from cyberbullying<\/em> and other dangers online.<\/p>\n

There are many kid-friendly sites at the site, one of which is Disney\u2019s Club Penguin<\/strong> which has a social-networking aspect. Togetherville offers children their first taste of social networking where they will use their real-life identities and real-life relationships. The site is also free of advertisements. Togetherville presents an environment that kids can enjoy and that parents will feel comfortable managing.<\/p>\n
