Today, Virtual Piggy was named Winner of The National Parenting Center’s Seal of Approval for 2013 in the category of websites! We’re extremely honored and excited to receive this endorsement, which has been given to websites like DisneyFamily.com and MoshiMonsters.com in past years.
The National Parenting Center was founded in 1989, with the goal of providing comprehensive and responsible parenting advice. Their Seal of Approval is used to endorse the best products and services as determined by their panel of parent and children reviewers. This means the products they endorse are thoroughly tested, and parent approved.
