Post: Online Games – Do You Let Your Kids Play?


My kids are really fond of the computer. It seems like they would rather play computer online kids games then anything else. They play them together and alone. As a parent I feel the need to limit their game play. I don’t mind it, especially when it’s educational games, but I still like to watch the amount of time they spent playing these games.

I  also have to admit, sitting next to them and enjoying the games with them is a guilty pleasure! Yes, they are kids games, but they are amusing to watch. Both kids have been on the site playing. There are so many things to do, all in the games online, but something for everyone. There are math games, coloring things and more. I don’t mind the kids playing. There are quite a few things to do for a wide age range, including preschool games and projects.

I know a lot of kids are into online games and really looking forward to being on the computer, but as parents we do have to safe guard them. Parental controls, pre-screening of the sites, even sitting with them are all things that we do to protect them from sites that are less then kid or family friendly. Saving links like Cookie.com to the desktop helps me when I have them playing while I’m making dinner. The site is ad-free so the kids aren’t going to click off on something that is not family friendly.

  1. My kids play tons of games online and on the Kindle Fire. I have to limit game time and with warm weather coming we have been spending more time outside which I love.
