Safe place for 7yo to share creations online?

staceylayne · 07-09-2014, 11:42 AM

My kids are really into making things with perler beads these days. My 7yo ds has made at least a dozen international flags. He's found a lot of pictures of perler bead flags to copy from google image searches but some he's created himself. He wants to put pictures of them online for others to find when they search, for example, "perler bead flag Columbia"

I know a lot of arts and crafts are shared on deviantart.com, and that seems like an easy set up, but even with "mature content hidden" I'm not sure I want him poking around there too much.

Any ideas?

What about a blog?

What's the easiest way to do that? Can we post stuff from my phone? (Feeling dumb

)

I'd love for him to have as much ownership of this project as possible. I'll not leave him alone on the internet, but if he could post pics independently that would save me from him bugging me to stop whatever I'm doing to help him *right now*!

Blogger, Tumblr, and Wordpress all have apps. Blogger or Tumblr may be easier to set up than Wordpress, I'm not sure.

Ooh, an app! That sounds totally doable. Thanks!

ETA, starting a new thread to chat about kids and blogging. Trying to hash out how to make this happen for him.
