Who can resist a little one standing near, peeking up to see what Mom or Dad is doing tapping on those keys and staring into that big TV screen?

Small children want to do what they see as fun, grown-up things, including using the computer.

Lil' Fingers offers a child-friendly experience that is designed just for them.

The Web site offers story time anytime, with it's free toddler stories, games and activities. The site features bright, primary colors and big buttons that make it easier for little fingers to navigate alone.

The site also makes it easier for more kids to be able to join in the fun and games because there's no need to have the latest and most sophisticated computers to use it. The site accommodates users with a modem and small monitor.

Children can hear stories about potty time, Mommy and Daddy, animals, colors, numbers and many other topics.

There's also "My Story," a customized story centered around an individual character name of the user's choosing.

Kids choose a name from a list, and if they're lucky, they will find their own name there and become the star of the story. The site also allows little tikes to color a picture to add to "My Story."

There also are games such as Finger Painting, Funny Faces, Time Teller, Hide-n-Seek and Match Up. Coloring pages also add to the fun.

In addition, the site offers special holiday and seasonal sections.

Not to leave parents out, the Web site has a Toddler Tips Blog that includes information on tops ranging from vaccinations to teeth-brushing to toy recalls.

Lil' Fingers makes the most of play time.
