AnonyMouse_2776 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 (edited) I just "bumped" into this web site and wondered if any of you have used it before. Twinkl Some resources are only available if you download the "Twinklbar"??? I don't want to be paranoid, but Twinkl sounds like Sparkle and both with required toolbars? If I am wrong, please correct me. Edited February 1, 2011 by SmileyPR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I use it all the time and have downloaded the toolbar not something I use very much but I needed it to get the resources I wanted. Love the resources, they are constantly adding new ones and are quickly catching up with the amount of resources sparklebox have to offer.

AnonyMouse_79 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 I find it really difficult to navigate and dont like that I have to download the resource to see it properly but there are some good resources there and no connection to sparklebox as its run by a lady!

I don't know that appearing to be run by a lady is any guarantee that it isn't dodgy. Always pays to be on your guard! Honey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 The site is fab - came across it last term and lots to download without the need to have the toolbar. Haven't used the priniting service yet - am not that organised - yet! They use the same toolbar software as the one as Sparklebox but there was a thread on the TES site a few weeks ago where they replied to concerns esp after the Sparklebox one. http://community.tes.co.uk/forums/p/458215/6333280.aspx My only niggle is that it can be easier to search using google than on the site itself. www.mrspancake.com is brilliant too - it's free but they suggest you make a contribution/donation. However, a collegaue did make a donation and has several emails since asking for further 'suggested' donations since. Kinda takes the shine off it though...
