“Homeschool.com Joins Internet Safety Crusade”

San Diego – March 21st, 2006, CA. - San Diego, Ca. based Children's Educational Network (CEN) and Auburn, Ca. based Homeschool.com announced today a Joint Venture agreement for CEN to create a Homeschool.com TUKI Kid Safe Browser. This new browser will have a built in Internet filter and parental controls designed to protect children from the perils of the Internet, built on CEN's proprietary technology that allows children to surf only safe, parent approved, child appropriate web sites. Unlike a typical filter, this browser works on an "include list" methodology that is considered by industry experts to be the safest and most reliable methodology available today.

"We are very happy to partner with CEN to protect children from pornography, hate, drugs, violence & online predators while embracing a family's dedication to education. The educational aspects are endless and we our proud to be a part of Children's Educational Networks mission to protect and educate children online.” Said Rebecca Kochenderfer, co-founder of Homeschool.com.

“The Homeschool.com Kid Safe TUKI Browser will provide a safe haven for children surfing the Internet, be positive, instructive and deliver daily educational content to children and their parents in an effort to teach proper Internet safety rules and netiquette” said Greg Writer, CEO and founder of Children's Educational Network. “I am extremely excited to have forged this alliance with the number one home schooling site on the Internet. With our strategy to offer educational content in addition to protection we feel that this partnership will allow us to continue to be the leader in Internet safety and education. It is very exciting to have such an incredible partner embrace our vision to build “The Ultimate Kids' Internet™” built on safety and education”.

The Homeschool.com Kid Safe TUKI Browser will be offered as a free download from the web site http://www.homeschool.com and will be officially launched in July 2006. The browser and safety features offered for free will be bundled with educational content and a closed filtered buddies-only email system that incorporates personal information filters and language filters to help prevent children from giving out their personal information and using inappropriate language. These premium features, along with many others, are part of Children's Educational Networks “TUKI Kids Club” and are offered for a monthly fee of $4.97. TUKI TV™, TUKI Tunes™, TUKI Moola™ and other premium features are currently under development and will be part of the TUKI Kids Club Membership.
