DoGonews is another great search engine for kids . I have included it in the educative search engines we are compiling here because of its interesting features . DogOnews is actually an online newspaper and web guide for children .DoGonews has a goal to fulfil and this goal as quoted from their webpage ":
Our goal is to provide a fun, safe and interactive environment for children to read and learn about interesting current events. Our  news articles are short, simple and include photos/videos in order to keep children focused and interested. We also augment our content with an integrated dictionary for challenging words and maps for geographical context.
