Children have a chance to help solve world hunger and learn new vocabulary words on a Web site called FreeRice.com.

That's right. Educate and solve world hunger at the same time. The site has a stated purpose of providing education to everyone for free and helping to end world hunger by providing rice to hungry people.

It's very easy, the site asks questions, and every time you, or your child, answer them correctly it donates 20 grains of rice. Although it's a game, it has a serious purpose, since it started a year ago it has fed more than two million people.

Funded by sponsors, the site is a joint project of the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard University and the United Nations World Food Program.

Here is some ways the group used the rice in the last year: Here are some examples of where Free Rice has been distributed:

* In Bangladesh, to feed 27,000 refugees from Myanmar for two weeks. * In Cambodia, to provide take-home rations of four kilograms of rice for two months to 13,500 pregnant and nursing women. * In Uganda, to feed 66,000 school children for a week. * In Nepal, to feed over 108,000 Bhutanese refugees for three days. * In Bhutan, to feed 41,000 children for 8 days. * In Myanmar, to feed 750,000 cyclone affected people for 3 days.

The site has a wide range of questions ranging from history questions to vocabulary and language questions. Test the site and see how smart, and generous, you can be.
