Cream Of The Crop
Google Custom Search Engine (CSE) - Create a search engine for kids by limiting sites searched to kid-friendly websites; create a search for you and your colleagues that's limited to university sites or a select group of professionally-vetted resources; or even create your own personal search engine that combs through your favorite recipe websites. It's all free, and there's no limit to how many CSEs you can create. In the short time since launch, over 100,000 CSEs have been created by people with all kinds of interests and purposes.
Here are some examples worth exploring:
Lucy Gray's Research Sites for Kids
The Librarian's E-Library
Deb Morrissey's ALA Best of Free Reference
Tamas Simon's Digital Reading Search
Bill Drew's Google Custom Search for WLANs and Libraries

Were The Kids In America
UNICEF released a report, Child Poverty in Perspective: An Overview of Child Well-Being in Rich Countries, which specifically addresses childhood in the 21 most-developed nations in the world. The study uses six categories: material well-being, family and peer relationships, health and safety, behavior and risks, and children's own sense of well-being (educational and subjective).
In overall well-being, the U.S. and U.K. respectively place 20th and 21st out of 21 countries.
