Math

[http://www.ed.gov/pubs/parents/Math/mathhome.html http://www.ed.gov/pubs/parents/Math/funmath.html] - Some simple math exercises geared toward parents trying to informally teach their youngish children.

Health

The milk matters campaign! (Some decent kids materials, re: calcium, brushing teeth.) [1]

Great Images

• http://coleccion.educ.ar/coleccion/CD4/contenidos/recursos/bancos-de-imagenes/imag_educar.html

Actually this is part of a collection of several CD's published by educ.ar that (afaik) holds the copyrights... I tried to determine the actual license but didn't find any.

Other

http://www.ed.gov/parents/academic/help/hyc.html - The helping your child series, from the US Dept. of Ed. Its good stuff, though directed to adults instead of kids. Still, easy enough to understand, and fun enough to include?

Multiple areas

• http://coleccion.educ.ar/coleccion/CD7/index.html

This is a CD titled "Activities with Free Software" (Actividades con Software Libre) with subjects ranging mathematics, language, drawing and transportation/road-sign codes.
