Free SpongeBob SquarePants Computer Games
SpongeBob SquarePants Animated Series
Animator Stephen Hillenburg created SpongeBob SquarePants for Nickelodeon back in 1999. The series quickly became a fan favorite and popularity grew until SpongeBob SquarePants became its own franchise. The show remains the highest rated cartoon series for the Nickelodeon network and will soon become the network’s longest running animated series with the completion of its eighth season.
The show is centered around its main character SpongeBob SquarePants and follows the exploits of him and his friends. SpongeBob lives in a little undersea community called Bikini Bottom where his home is a pineapple. His trusty pet snail Gary, as well as his best friend Patrick Star are normally featured and are sometimes the cause of SpongeBob’s problems. The main theme that runs through each episode is the positive spin and extra helping of enthusiasm that SpongeBob brings to living his life everyday. From working at the Krusty Krab to sitting in an empty box with Patrick and playing make believe, SpongeBob always gives his all.
Because the show is such a popular one for Nickelodeon, the network has developed its own domain that features plenty of free games and activities.SpongeBob ’s site features over one hundred free computer games for kids. Here we are going to take a look at the five best games that are available.
