Mensa For Kids

Sponsored by the Mensa Foundation, www.MensaForKids.org provides a place for Young Mensans and other children ages 6-10 to play and learn. The site includes educational and challenging games; resources for kids, parents and teachers, including lesson plans and study tips; and a thought-provoking Feature of the Month written by a Mensan for the younger audience.

The site's mascot, Max the Fox, got his name through a national contest that garnered more than 200 entries in the site's inaugural year. Max writes a regularly updated blog on the site.

Mensa For Kids was honored with the 2008 Bronze EXCEL Award for Online Publishing-Web Site Design Excellence. The EXCEL program annually judges more than 1,200 magazines, newsletters, scholarly journals, electronic publications and Web sites.
