These sites just don't fit anywhere in our discussion... but are way too fun to leave out. If you have a free moment, please explore!
 
The Art Zone National Gallery of Art's creative playground. Flow and Brushter are two favs, but all are very fun.
 
ArtisanCam Very British, very artsy. Try a number of online art projects.
 
Bomomo Click on the white screen. Click on the strange tools. It is mesmerizing.
 
Wordle Wonderful word art without work.
 
Drawtoy A kaleidoscope with an attitude. Kids start thinking mathematically as they create.
 
SketchCast Sketch and explain it as you draw. Then embed it on a web page. Too many possibilities!
 
Grafitti Creator Speaks for itself.
 
Psykopaint Ignore the name and the initial image. This is a wonderfully strange web based image distorter. Upload an image and paint it with the variety of tools provided.
 
CubeScape Do we need virtual legos?
