alternatives are still abounding --- Sure the Internet is superior to any single document book, magazine, or library, given its extent and availability. However, as far children education is concerned and provided they're available, physical or analogue alternatives abound and offer a different experience. I would even argue a superior one in terms of what you learn and the knowledge retained. Scrolling/reading through wikipedia and online resources can be done mindlessly amongst kids, as opposed in most cases to reading a book which entails a certain commitment I reckon.
