Animal Jam is a multiplayer online game (MMORPG) by Smart Bomb Interactive that has got kids hooked. It takes place in the world of Jamaa, where the players can explore different regions. Each environment is different from the rest with museums having different exhibits.
The kids once registered, are given animal avatars with randomly generated names according to their avatar and are called Jammers. Players can accessorize their house and even adopt virtual pets. They can talk to each other using Jam-a-Grams or Safe Chat, a filtered chat which restricts the use of any foul words. Gems are used as a form of currency within the game to buy gifts or trade between players in a store called the Diamond Shop. One of the main benefits is that your kids won't be exposed to online advertising as the site adheres to a strict policy. It serves as an important educational experience to learn about different animals and their habitats.
There are different avenues within the game, which let the players view videos. The Sarepia Theater lets the players watch fun and educational videos on animals. Brady Barr's place lets the kids experiment with different colors, go on expeditions, and learn about land-dwelling creatures. Tierney's Aquarium lets you learn about underwater creatures and lets you touch some animals in the aquarium. Overall, this game is fun.
