Press Release Body = Escondido, CA May 2, 2006 - Children\'s Educational Network
(CEN) announced today the launch of a free Internet filter and parental control
software (a kid safe browser) designed to protect and educate children on the
Internet. The new TUKI Scout BrowserT (http://www.scoutbrowser.com) created by CEN
is a kid safe browser designed to educate and protect children from pornography,
hate, violence, online predators and other Internet perils.

Steven Stone, Chief Operations Officer for CEN, a parent and Eagle Scout said; "When
we found that boyslife.com was a pornographic web site, we decided we should build a
browser designed just for Scouts to make sure that kids could safely navigate to the
magazine\'s web site without the worry of stumbling across porn."

The new TUKI Scout BrowserT is built on CEN\'s proprietary technology; however, it
is not authorized nor associated with Boy Scouts of America or Girl Scouts of
America. "We tried to capture the essence of the Scouting experience" said Greg
Writer, CEO & founder of CEN. "The graphical interface, our educational talking
character and the pre-approved child appropriate web sites were all selected and
programmed with the Scouting experience in mind."

In an effort to further protect children, CEN has programmed the default home page
of the TUKI Scout BrowserT to www.BoysLife.org and has launched a marketing
campaign in Boys\' Life Magazine, the official magazine of the Boy Scouts, where
they are offering a free download for the new kid safe browser.

"The TUKI Scout BrowserT will provide a safe haven for children surfing the
Internet, be positive, instructive and deliver daily educational content to children
and their parents in an effort to teach proper Internet safety rules and
netiquette." said Greg Writer. "We are extremely excited to offer a great tool free
to all Scouts and their families."

The new TUKI Scout BrowserT will utilize technology that allows children to surf
only safe, parent-approved, child-appropriate websites. Unlike a traditional
Internet filter or parental controls, the TUKI Scout BrowserT works on an \'include
list\' which allows children to only surf web sites from a database of pre-approved,
pre-screened, child appropriate websites which is, "the safest and most reliable
method according to industry experts," said Greg Writer. A great kid safe browser
with easy to use parental controls.

Free download of the TUKI Scout BrowserT can be found at www.ScoutBrowser.com .
