FAQS (FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS)

mollymoccasins.com is a new kind of story-driven entertainment for children. This first-of-its-kind digital book series and advertising-free website is calling all young adventurers to read, play, think, imagine and investigate. It’s for kids of all ages, supports early learning, literacy development and it also connects young adventurers to the world of fun available to them in their everyday lives.

WHO IS MOLLY MOCCASINS?
Molly Moccasins is a bright, imaginative, young and curious character who delights in all that life has to offer—the big things as well as the small. Her uncle once said, “A curious mind is never bored,” and she takes that quite seriously. So, with her magical moccasins guiding her and keeping her safe, she discovers that every day is a new adventure.

Go to the STORIES section to read, MOLLY AND HER MOCCASINS and learn how she gets her moccasins and finds her purpose—it’s free!

WHAT IS THE TARGET AGE?
The stories, games and activities can be enjoyed by kids of all ages, but the site was created with aspirational vocabulary and logic for 4 to 8 year-olds (with varying skill levels).

WHAT ARE THE OPTIONS ON THE SITE?
There are many options for both the stories and games:

• The stories default to play automatically which reads aloud to a young adventurer with voiceover and a musical underscore, but they can also be read independently or with a caregiver with the audio off.
• In the games section or at the end of each story in story related games, the entire story can be printed as a COLORING BOOK on the go (the text box has purposefully been left blank so children can write their own stories to the illustrations), or one can color the coloring book online in STORY PAINTING with saving and emailing abilities. There are also two PICTURE PUZZLES, a CONNECT THE NUMBERS and a SPLASH COLORING game included with each purchased story (these games have three levels of difficulty, for playing at a comfortable skill level).
• There is also a free music video about our story, CLOUD ANIMALS and some other free games: Word of the Day, Word Scramble, Silly Sentences, Dress Up, and Molly Matching. Our eCards are great fun too and one can send as many as they wish, whenever they wish to.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE OF WEB STORY PURCHASES VS. MOBILE DEVICE PURCHASES ?
Web story purchases are only valid for the web. Any story purchased for a digital device is through a vendor (like Amazon, Apple’s iTunes, etc.) and only works on those devices. Due to privacy laws we were unable to connect the purchases so we have decided to lower the prices everywhere. We wanted our audience to have as many choices as possible at the best possible prices.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD WE VISIT THE SITE?
We hope you’ll visit every day! There is always the Word of the Day to experience as well as stories, games and activities galore. We’re adding new stories, games and features all the time too.

HOW IS MOLLYMOCCASINS.COM DIFFERENT FROM OTHER CHILDREN’S SITES?
mollymoccasins.com is not only the first-of-its-kind all digital story, game and activity series for children, but it is also a safe and unified play space for blossoming imaginations and young adventurers. Above and beyond the cyber experience of the stories, games and activities, the offline experience is greatly encouraged. We hope our young adventurers will have many of their own every day adventures in their everyday lives with ideas from the stories and story activity pages. We are also dedicated to helping children become and remain inspired and literate around the globe. So, no matter where you buy Molly Moccasins stories and for whatever digital device you choose, a story will be given to a child in need—story for story. There is nothing quite like mollymoccasins.com, and that is what makes us different.

IS IT A SAFE SITE FOR CHILDREN?
We have put the CHILD SAFE seal on our site because there is absolutely NO ADVERTISING and no privacy sharing whatsoever. As creators and parents of young children, it was very important to us to keep the site free outside chaos. The only links to other sites are product related in the Shop (i.e. Apple’s iBookstore or Amazon) and social media connections in the parent related sections. The Internet does however offer a world of opportunity for children. Your guidance and involvement are essential to help ensure that children have a safe and rewarding online experience. We encourage you to visit the GetNetWise.org site and look through the "Kids Safety" section together. Your efforts to instill responsible information practices will help steer your children to age-appropriate sites and will go a long way toward ensuring that your children have enriching experiences online.

CAN CHILDREN PLAY BY THEMSELVES OR DO THEY REQUIRE SUPERVISION AND DIRECTION?
mollymoccasins.com was created to engage, entertain and educate. It is always advisable for a parent, caregiver or educator to preview a site’s contents and functionality, but we believe you will find it a fun, easy and safe site.
