For the Adventurous Spirit
by Kathleen Bieke, Sites4Moms.com
It must be terribly difficult being a teenage girl in today's society. Various media outlets more often than not portray females as objects who care for nothing more than shopping. Sadly, I know some girls like that, but I know many of them probably are not at all fulfilled in that role. Girltech.com helps shatter the myth that girls are silly and empty headed. InventHer profiles girl inventors, connections for girl inventors and resources for creative young women. The Sports page has different profiles on athletes, sports and a health section. Girl Views offers a girl's point of view on software, books and movies.

This great website offers games too. The Game Café has online fun stuff to do. The Crazy Story Maker was cute. There is a scavenger hunt, pig Latin and many other games that can be printed and played offline. Girl Galaxy has informative articles about NASA, famous (and infamous) women, women at work and more.
Tech Trips offers girl related links to many interesting sites. Real sites for real teenage girls. Girls who are serious about where they are going in life and those who know how to relax and have fun when the time is right too. What I appreciated most about Girltech was its attitude towards girls. They know girls are not what they seem to be and that they are much deeper than given credit for. I wonder what women's careers would have been like 25 years ago if this site had been around. Makes you wonder! Until next time.
