virtual worlds part 1

Minyanland

www.minyandland.com

You learned about monay management and banking stuff. Mostly for kids, You create a character, explore, buy things to decorate you house. A lot to explore. Chat with others, kid friendly.

Experience: user since 2007 or late 2008, i forgot, it's a bit to kid-like for me so I rarely use it. Fun if you're a kid and spend all of you allowance you learn about saving money. It's educational with money terms, and saving and spending.

SpineWorld
www.spineworld.com

You create a character but clothes to wear and furniture to put in you house, make friends, play games, talk to others. there's also membership for more features.

Experience: player since 2009. i don't play it much, so i really don't have a summary or that much commetary for the game,

Moshi Monsters
www.moshimonsters.com

Choose for a few monsters, choose the colors, earn rox to buy clothes and funiture, wallpaper, etc for you house (only one scroll through room) and earn trophies when you level up. You mainly earn rocks through playing the daily puzzle and the other puzzles available. Fun for kids maybe 6+. Membership available. You can;t chat but you can post messages and become friends with other monsters.

Experience: Joined August 2009 Very kidlike for me, so I don't really play it. I wish there more rooms. and there should be more ways to earn rox. not bad, but most players, as it seems are withing the 6-14 limit, there are a few older people that play it.

OurWorld
www.ourworld.com

You can create a character, play games, and make friends, chat, and have a crush, It's fun, you earn virtual money by playing games. You can buy clothes to wear.

Experience: player since, 2009 or 2008? (I forgot)I don't really play it. I think it's fun, earning money is the problem for me. I think you can create a house, I 4got it's been forever since I've been on. I would recommend it 2 others,

Girl Virtual Worlds you probably never knew existed.

Groovy Girls.
Safe Chat. Go to posh parties and meet other girls. Now you need RSVP dolls to unlock new features.
Comments: Member since 2007. I was playing on this website since it was simple and had 1 or more parties at a time. I remember when the RSVP stuff didn't even exist.

Spark City
Summary: No membership required. You can take outlines add color and save full outfits to wear. It's still in beta. You can type your own messages to chat. You earn money buy playing games
Comments: Member since this year.Very fun. They've added a lot more features and games. I wish earning money would be easier.


Everything Girl
Play Games to earn points to upgrade your power pet. Do things to earn charms for you bracelet No chatting what so ever.
Comments: Member since 2006 or 2007. It's fun when you're younger and enjoy playing games with Barbie.

Barbie Girls (a.k.a BBG-My friends and I used to call it that)
Now it requires to but a VIP membership now to unlock the full world. Back then all you had to but was the MP3 player. It's fun but non VIP's don't get to do as much as before when VIPs didn't exist. You don't get to buy some clothes or furniture anymore to decorate your house and dress up your avatar. Your house is permanently locked if you aren't a VIP so you don't get to visit other houses anymore :( And you need your parent to activate you for full chat or it will just be in safe mode. And you can't really do anything anymore that's really fun but chat with other player, and just walk around and play the new games.
Comments: Playing this since Summer 2007. I loved it when I first saw it, but over time less things are available for non-members. When there wasn't any VIP thins it was better.
Be-Bratz
Make a avatar and explore the virtual world. But you have to but the bratz doll with the USB first, to play.
Comments: I don't really have experience playing this but my friend does.
Beacon Street Girls.
Join clubs and chat with othes about topics. You can earn HLP and M$M (Marty Money) to spend in the town and buy stuff for your locker, which you can decorate. They've recently upgraded to lockers to 360 one's. Personalize you page and leave comment on other's white boards. Also there are fun games like the movie maker, and dress up games. Also You can explore the character's bios and win cool prizes. 
Personal Comments: Member since Fall 2008. Really fun and I recommend it to anyone. Most people are friendly.

Girl Sense
Sort of like Stardoll, you create a boutique, and create clothes and participate in auctions.
Comments: Made an account on 2008 The game is fun since the clothes aren't bad, you get to create your own logo, and personalize a lot. 

Stardoll
Well-known girl dress up game.
Comments: You can dress up celebrities, so that's a little fun
