Welcome to the fifth lesson of our Web Design for Kids series, all about CSS. We’ve worked very hard on our HTML content, so now it’s time to make it look pretty! We will be adding things to our HTML page here, as well as starting a new file: a CSS document. Take a look at the completed website we’re building. The files for this lesson can be downloaded here and don’t forget to ask any questions in the comments section at the bottom of this page. What is CSS Exactly? Before we start coding away let’s first make sure we understand what CSS is. CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets and it’s a language which helps us change the way our HTML page looks. In the picture above, the browser on the left shows a website with no CSS, no styling , while the website on the right has styling. The styling has been written within a CSS file– much better! CSS is written within a separate file using our text editor.
