TEEN Approved Programs: How many times have your parents or friends convinced you that
you will enjoy a program and then when you get there it is either a kiddie program, not what you expected or just plain ridiculous?
We got a group of GEEKs together and either experienced these programs first hand or talked them over with experts who understand
where we are coming from...so we can assure you that if the program is on this list that YOU will enjoy it. Some are marked
Junior GEEK program which means you may still enjoy it, but it is geared toward kids ages 6 - 10.
