Nickelodeon has acquired GoCityKids, an online
directory (www.gocitykids.com), that
helps visiting and local families find family-friendly things to do in the city.
Parents can search for "do-together" activities, including those from the local
park and recreation departments. The site is written for parents by parents, and
includes feedback, ratings of the activities, local details and seasonal events.
The site also ffers a weekly newsletter with top picks of what to do in a given
week. Under Nickelodeon, GoCityKids will broaden its reach from 14 to 20 cities
by the end of the first quarter of 2006.
