The new gulli.fr: offering even more for children and their parents to discover on the Web

Gulli is unveiling the new gulli.fr, a multimedia realm of discovery and interaction for children aged 7 to 14 and their parents. Boasting an incredible array of reference information, videos, games and community forums, gulli.fr is a rich, vibrant site where you'll find everything that makes Gulli so enjoyable.

Gullipédia: the incredible encyclopedia
A powerful tool for discovery, learning and expanding your knowledge,
Gullipédia offers:

  • A lively, entertaining online encyclopedia produced in partnership with Universalis Junior: over 200 articles on ecology, science, myths and legends, politics, the animal kingdom, religion, sport and more. Enhanced content that includes photos, maps and illustrations for better comprehension.
  • Fun vocabulary tools: a French dictionary (Littré Moderne), thesaurus, style guide and French/English dictionary (Websters), including an audio tool to be sure your pronunciation is "parfait"! And for anyone who might need to review the imperfect subjunctive or past perfect indicative, there's a module for conjugating verbs in any tense you like.

Video for an action-packed site
TV anytime (GulliMag, Gulli's daily magazine show; experiments conducted on Gulli's science show Prouve-le!), Webisodes (exclusive behind-the-scenes action on series like Grand Galop and Oggy et les cafards), video clips (featuring Gullia and more), promotional clips of new films and TV programmes, and coming soon: a VoD service. There's a lot happening at gulli.fr!

Gulli Tribu: a new "responsible" community forum for children and parents
gulli.fr has created fully moderated blogs and forums where children can talk about all their favourite topics. Meanwhile, parents can discuss issues relating to childrearing, while at the "Parents' Corner" they'll find information on the site's content, programming on the Gulli TV network and advice on keeping the Internet safe for their families!

And with gulli.fr you get even more, including:

  • A fun, interactive search engine hosted by Gullia, the channel's mascot, that visitors can use to find what they need or simply browse through all the site has to offer!
