Seamless web page backgrounds just for fun with kids in mind

Just For Fun - with children in mind


This collection has been withdrawn and is now only available for schools and other institutions - This page will remain up for those who wish to download the free graphics.



These backgrounds are perfect for youngsters and small children to use in their emails and web backgrounds for those who have been taught how to create web pages. Children can be taught very young how to create simple pages and they do get such of lot of fun seeing the end results. And it's a great way to fill in a rainny afternnoon too!

So if you are an adult with a web site do encourage your kids to have a go and maybe you could let them have their own web page as their little corner on the web.
