Kids.gov is the official kids’ portal to the U.S. government. With links to over 1,200 web pages from educational organizations, schools, and government agencies, it’s geared to the learning levels and interests of girls and boys in grades K-5 and 6-8.

While it is our mission to link primarily to government sites written for kids, many of the sites we’ve selected also provide lesson plans and classroom activities for teachers. Our Free for Teachers page also has free publications, colorful posters, practical lesson plans, and you can get online newsletters and email updates of your favorite pages on USA.gov and Pueblo.gsa.gov. Kids.gov is maintained by the Federal Citizen Information Center (FCIC).

Privacy Message

Kids.gov is a gateway that takes your students to other sites. The majority of the links are from other government sites, but we do link to commercial and other non-government sites. Although many of the sites we link to must adhere to Federal rules established to protect children's privacy, please understand that not all sites have to comply with these rules. While we have selected sites that we believe offer good, reliable information, we are not responsible for the content provided. Nor are we responsible for their adherence to Federal rules to protect children's privacy. It is important that you monitor your students online communication to ensure that they do not provide personally identifiable information to websites that are unacceptable. Tell your students to ask you or another adult to look at what they are doing first if they wish to give their name, address, phone number, or email address.
