There are several weaknesses in this website. First, this website is specifically design for European kids as its syllabus is in line with the education provided in that country. This website is not a universal website that can help students for other country to learn better about history as the topic cover in this website might not relevant to those who are not receiving the same educational system like the European kids did.
Other than that, the main language use in this website is English. For elementary schoolers who are not used to speak English, it might be difficult for them to understand the information and questions given in the activities. The founder of this page should consider making it multi-lingual so that it can be used as an additional source of knowledge for students who are not used to English language.
