Gift ideas

Here is a great list to share with middle school parents... the folks at Common Sense Media have a list of media for gift-giving... their editors' picks of "cool" videos, games, books, etc. that minimize inappropriate stereotypes, sex, and violence. Their web site observes, "With these high-quality, age-appropriate choices, your kids will be entertained and enriched. And who knows? They just might learn something, too."
