Sheppard Software

Sheppard Software is an old-school-looking but surprisingly effective site full of free educational games. Covering math, geography, science, and language arts, its simple browser-based activities help kids practice facts, locations, and basic concepts without downloads or logins. Games like geography quizzes, animal classification challenges, and fraction exercises are designed to be fast-paced but not overwhelming, making them handy for warm-ups or quick review. Parents love that most content is completely free, with an optional paid version to remove ads, which makes it easy to test drive and integrate selectively. The graphics are dated compared with modern apps, so some kids may roll their eyes at first, but many end up hooked by the challenge of beating their own scores. Use it intentionally: pick a specific game that aligns with current lessons rather than letting kids wander the entire site aimlessly.
