"Families Matter" review of the Wonder Rotunda
By Eric Garfinkel on October 5, 2009
This inexpensive “virtual theme park” is some of the most fun you can have without ever leaving the comfort of your own computer chair. And at only $45 dollars per yearly membership, it won’t break your budget either.
Once registered on Wonder Rotundra your kids take their own personalized avatar on a virtual vacation. From zip-lining through the rainforest, visiting Kangaroo Island on a night adventure to propelling through the human digestive system, kids will not only have a blast, they may just learn some things along the way.
In addition to the 15 different adventures, kids can also earn “wonder dollars” to spend on food and souvenirs, find hidden gold coins for added surprises, participate in 13 different game shows and even print out a personalized ‘certificate of completion’ as a keepsake of their virtual tour. Plus, if your little adventurer wants a change, they can try their hand at running their own smoothie stand.
Even though this virtual vacation is designed for children 7-12 years of age, I found it to very educational and a lot of fun.
