My daughter has been playing on the NSA's web page called CryptoKids but I was wondering if there is anything else out there that is may be more challenging to a nine year old.

Books are good, obviously but it would rather she uses something online. Do you have any suggestions?

The best cryptography website I've ever seen (excluding this one, of course ;-) is a website created by a brilliant cryptographer named Terry Ritter www.ciphersbyritter.com. It's the most comprehensive collection of cryptographic and related information I've ever seen, especially for beginners. The advanced researcher will find it a valuable resource as well. I hope you and your children will have as much fun reading it as I have. I'm assuming of course that you are really serious about teaching your child the basics of cryptography .
