An online game to educate kids about tsunamis was pulled Friday from the Federal Emergency Management Agency's Web site amid worries it trivialized last month's devastation in southeast Asia and beyond.

The game, which debuted on FEMA's kids' Web site in 1998, asked players to guide a car, a starfish, a surfboard and other beach objects back to their proper places after they were scattered by a tsunami. Winners were linked to a cartoon dancing frog.

"A tsunami has just hit FEMA Beach and has rearranged a few things," the game directed. "Please put the 9 objects back where they belong to see the cyber-prize!"
