Funky Web Kids

Rainbowsauce.com may not be a site that appeals to everyone, but it certainly appealed to me and my kids. It’s a site that sells lots of different things, particularly alternative books for kids. I never even knew such types of products existed. But I’m so happy I know now.

The section of the site that I love, is the childrens books. Each book is available to purchase online in the UK, Austraila and the US, and ususally shipped within the next working day. There are synopses and reviews for each book so the buyer has a clear idea of what they’re getting. The books mainly contain child characters or loveable animals from alternative families.

I think this site is important and a great resource for all children. In the case when a child is from a “traditional” family, these books can teach tolerance, acceptance and awareness of the various types of family structures that exist. For children in alternative families, this book can help them realise that their family is not so bizarre. I imagine it must be difficult for a child with no father and two mothers to constantly to read about all sorts of families except their own.

So the next time you want to buy a book for your kid choose something a bit different, open their eyes a bit and forget Amazon. Choose rainbowsauce.com
