Which is a better educational tools for children? books or internet?  

This is a personal observation with my children. I noticed that since we had internet connection at home, I seldom see them using books for their assignments. They go straight to computer and search the net for the answers to their assignments. I once asked my daughter why? and she said, it is better using the net because it has many examples, better explanations and easy understanding for it has colorful illustrations. Thinking, I realized its true. But there are always disadvantages of using the net. Children will be tempted to open sites that are for adults only. Guidance of parents is always needed, what if like my case, I am always at the office. I mean I just think books is still better tool for children. It allows them to think further and to study harder. Can I hear from you MyLotters? Thanks.
