One of the most useful things about the internet is that it has made parenting, especially educating children, a lot easier than before. That isn’t to say that parents can abdicate their responsibility to the computer to raise their children, but rather that there are now a ton of resources available that parents in the past didn’t have in order to help guide the teaching of their children. Best of all, many of these tools are innovative kids games that are both fun and enlightening.
As exciting as a new console generation is the early months are most of the time very barren when it comes to great games. Use this time to have fun with the games you never got around to finishing rather than buying a “next gen” game that you really do not care about. Bragging rights to your friends comes at a price – but not one that’s worth it.
Some people think that video games are having a bad influence on our kids but thankfully they are truly wrong, as many researchers nowadays state that if you play video games with your kids only good things can come out of it. With everyone’s busy and hectic schedule, it’s important to have some down time and what better and healthier way than to play some video game with your children.
“Gamer with Kids”. Do those words really go together in harmony? Video gamers who grew up in the 1980s with the Nintendo Entertainment System or in the 1990s with a Sega Genesis probably have kids of their own today. You love video games, the great memories that your childhood brought, and you want to keep that alive in your adult life, as well as impart some of those feelings to your own children.
Video games can be a great educational and skill development tool for your kids, but they can also bring a lot of negative things as well. Many games in the market today tend to include violence, inapppropriate and offensive language and behavior that can change the way your children can view the world. Easy access to smartphones and tablets can allow for your child ot be exposed to inappropriate video games.
The latest generation video game consoles in Sony’s Playstation 4, Microsoft’s Xbox One and Nintendo’s Wii U are here. Some like to call them next gen, but the fact is these are the current gen and the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Wii are last gen. But just because we have a new console generation does not mean we should kick our 360, PS3 or Wiis to the curb! There is still life left in them yet!

If you haven’t heard of any of these, you most likely live under a rock – on the moon – with noise-cancelling earphones on. If you have, you’re like almost every gamer and participate in online gaming. That’s right grandpa, you can play video games with other people through the Internets. The younger generations grew up with this gift. Others experienced multiplayer gaming by gathering all of your friends at the house of whoever had the Nintendo Entertainment System (yes, that means leaving your cave), blowing on the cartridge and taking turns playing Super Mario Bros or Metroid.
