The good stuff

  • Educational value:

    Some games are educational.
  • Messages:

    Not an issue.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    Some spooky or scary material in the games and video clips, but the violence is mostly cartoon-like.
  • Sex:

    Not an issue.
  • Language:

    Not an issue.
  • Consumerism:

    Streaming videos, animated banner ads, and pop-ups found; most are Disney related, but there is some outside advertising. Kids have access to the huge "Shop" area of the site.
  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About Disney

Parents need to know that this site is truly all things Disney. Although the site is sleek and impressive to look at, there's a lot going on -- and it can be overwhelming for some kids. You'll find movie clips, TV schedules and episodes, games galore, music, events, and travel information, as well as a Disney shopping extravaganza. Advertising is used throughout the site with streaming videos, animated banner ads, and some pop-ups that promote mostly Disney stuff, but some outside advertising can be found as well. The new, beautifully-rendered DXD (Disney Xtreme Digital) section is ever evolving, but contains access to chat rooms, full-length TV episodes, behind-the-scenes movie clips, music videos, and previews of soon-to-be released games. The chat feature is extremely well regulated with preset phrases and questions. Kids can either safely chat with random people or their "True Friends" -- a feature that requires users to trade a code offline to activate. And, parents must enable the chat feature for kids under 13. Kids can also create their own personal page with icons, personal information, and multimedia all chosen from preset lists. To spruce up their pages, kids can "buy" other things with earned points.
