A social networking site for kids and tweens ages 6-11 where users can upload pictures, communicate with their friends, and play games. The site reassures parents that no bullying, predators, or solicitation will happen on this website- all communication takes place with the help of pre-determined word lists. All pictures are manually reviewed by Scuttle Pad staff, so no offensive imagery is present on the site. The site mimic's the simple style of facebook, but is not as social- users can post to their wall a status update and a "shout out" to the site's main page, but cannot invite friends to play the same games they are playing. Overall, it is a decent start for kids and tweens that are new to social networking- they can meet users from all over the world, but they must communicate using only pre-determined word lists.
