§
How do I register to GirlSense?
To create a member account, complete the registration form
by choosing a unique user name (NetName) and a password. In both cases, we
highly recommend NOT using a personal name or other personally identifying
information, and we also ask that users do not choose anything that might be
considered inappropriate language.
Give your age. There are no age limitations, so just say
your real age. Enter your e-mail address if you’d like to receive newsletters
or other messages from GirlSense, such as notices when someone’s bought
something from your boutique. Give a parent’s address so we can let them know
you’ve joined and indicate if you’d like us to save their address so we can
send you your password if you forget it.
For inquiries about and assistance with registration to
GirlSense, please call our toll-free number: 1-866-308-0363.

I'm having trouble logging in. What
do I do?
It is necessary for you to log in exactly the same way you
did when you registered - if you used CAPS, then you need to use CAPS; if you
registered only in lowercase - then that's the way you need to do it when you
log in.

Miscellaneous
Nothing. KiddoNet.com is still around – we have just
decided to combine the best with the best – so that now on GirlSense you’ll be
able to find the best KiddoNet activities. When we remove KiddoNet.com, we’ll
offer links to all the other popular KiddoNet activities we know you’d miss in
our KiddoNet Archives.
This means that you will no longer need to pay a
subscription fee to use our site. Instead, we’ll have sponsored activities and
advertisements from companies that sell products that are relevant and suitable
to our users.
