Scottish Language Dictionaries (www.sldl.org.uk) have just relaunched
their Scuil Wab website (wwww.scuilwab.org.uk).

Scuil Wab is a website where children of all ages can learn about the
Scots language by playing games, reading stories, doing puzzles and
generally having fun.

We'd love to hear what you think and appreciate any suggestions or
comments.

Thanks,

Pete.
