Sask Gen Web for kids

SaskGenWeb For Kids of all ages is back online!

There are special genealogical posting boards for kids looking for family roots. If you are a kid visiting this page, please use this board to ask for help to find your great great grandparents, cousins, etc. If you are an adult visiting this page, check out this board often to see if you can be of assistance to these junior genealogists.

Besides posting family tree queries, on the SaskGenWeb For Kids webpages there are crytograms, word search puzzles, crosswords, fill in the blanks, quizzes, online interactive games, and much more.  Fun for both kids and adults.

There is also family research and genealogical ideas for parents and teachers
