I've just registered a new domain, www.KidsCanMakeIt.co.uk. My plans for this domain are to provide projects for kids to make stuff. I find it quite sad that kids are spoon-fed so much stuff nowadays that they don't get the satisfaction of having made something for themselves.
The site will contain articles and plans, ideas and suggestions, and will welcome contributions from readers.
This is something that I've wanted to do for a while now, because I think my 3-year old son will benefit from it.
Then today I had a conversation with someone who runs a different type of site for kids. They put Amazon ads on their site and make a lot of commission on the sale of books, CDs, DVDs etc. In fact they've had months that have earned them over $1000.
I like that kind of side-effect of running a website that I'm genuinely interested in running.
I only just registered the domain, so the DNS hasn't been set up, and there's no pages available just yet.
I'll be getting started on it tomorrow.
