If your kid has an Xbox and they play online you will often here them either yelling at the TV or talking to you about how awesome it is. You will often see your kid wanting to play role playing games or shooting games because they like the action and shooting. If you love to play Halo then you will love to play that type of game online. Your kid probably already plays the game and that’s what he has been trying to tell you forever. That’s probably all they talk about at the dinner table is online this and online that.

If you have a computer and an internet connection you can play any online game as long as you buy the game so you can make an account. I play Counterstrike and I love it. You just get online and start playing with your friends from the game. You will make friends fast online if you play a decent amount. The more you play the better you will get. Most kids that play computer games online play the most insane hours that you will ever hear. Kids somehow find a way to play more then 50 hours a week. It is in the stats on counterstrike if you were to look.

The other type of games that you might find your students or kids playing is the flash games online. While at school I used to play the flash games after I did my work because I had a computer class and I had computers in some of my other classes. We would get online and look for games that were fun until school was out and we could go get on the real servers and play real online games.

If you have an Xbox or a Sony Play Station then you probably already know about online gaming. All you do is sign up for the service and you play the type of games that are online enabled. You just go to the store where you buy your games from and you pick out the ones if you are playing online. Most online games are games like Gears of War and Halo 3. You can also find games like Call of Duty I think they actually just came out with a new Call of Duty game called Call of Duty – Modern Warfare. I heard it was a good game but I am not sure if it is online enabled. Although I am pretty sure that you play it online because most of the Call of Duty games you can play online. They are pretty fun you usually just go out and start shooting up the other team. There are role playing games and such like that but they don’t tend to make them online although they do have a few of them I think like Final Fantasy and games like those. I am not really into the whole anime theme like the fable games and stuff; online gaming is for shooting games in my opinion.

The internet knows no bounds and this applies to all users – adults and children alike. There are plenty of websites that are great for businesses or for adult use, but what about the offerings for kids? Just like toys, trends on the web change for kids, and what is hot now may be very different than what your child was playing just a few months ago.

Role Playing

One of the largest trends in online games is the huge number of role playing games. Children have the opportunity to plan scaled down versions of MMORPG classics like World of Warcraft and Star Wars. Kids develop a character and then take that character through a series of activities or missions. There are a large variety of these games for both girls and boys, with some overlap, but not much.

These games are actually rather good, assuming they are not playing anything too violent. The thinking and strategy involved in many of them is educational, and working with others in teams or guilds can help problem solving and build collaboration skills.

Coloring Pages

Coloring books are rather blasé. The way to color in 2007 is online. Websites such as The Doll Palace offer many coloring pages created from the dolls available on the website and that have been uploaded by other users. These coloring pages range from simple application of predetermined colors to a more complex color palette that allows your little artist to be as creative and detailed as she would like. Once the coloring pages are complete, they can be saved, shared or printed out to be proudly displayed on the refrigerator.

Anime

Anime is another popular internet offering. Anime style cartoons and the accompanying manga is gaining popularity with children at a very rapid pace. Unfortunately, anime and manga are not yet entirely mainstreamed on television or in the bookstore (although they are getting that way.) Kids who enjoy reading the Japanese style cartoons or watching the Japanese style artwork can find plenty online. Parents should help screen the series their child is reading or watching as both anime and manga are very mainstream in Japan – including with adult audiences.

Thinking Games

Games that involve no thought just shooting or the like still exist online, but kids of today appreciate a greater challenge. Games that involve thinking through problems or even math and science are becoming more popular. Creating roller coasters or complex lines that animated characters can ride are growing in popularity and the greater the challenge, the more the child is learning from their choice of entertainment.

With all things online, it is important for parents to sit down with their child to see what sort of websites they prefer to visit. While there may be questionable content on the internet, the online world as a whole is not a dangerous place. Just like anything else, parents must give their children the right amount of guidance and instruction to allow them room to grow and learn while keeping them safe.

Uncle Al asked:


BENDAROOS–AN UNCLE AL REVIEW

For this one, I’ve got to go change into my “Gramps” outfit!

WAX COATED STRINGS

That’s what these things are…brightly colored wax coated strings.  Sort of like art deco pipe cleaners.  Bendaroos are bendable, shapable and used for creative playing or decorating other toys or items.  I like the idea of creativity for the kids.  The kit comes with templates and a play guide for getting the most out of your Bendaroos.   

MAYBE YES…

1.  Buy through the site, and get double your Bendaroos

2.  Does not stain or leave a permanent mess like crayons or markers

3.  Safe, fun, easy to use and reusable

4.  Great to take on vacations

5.  Can provide another creative child activity with or without parent involvement

BUT MAYBE NOT….

1.  The wax is sticky and leaves a residue.  This means a confined play area and hand wiping when done.  If this residue gets on carpet or other fabric, it is reported to be difficult to remove. My kids wouldn’t sit and play in one spot for any length of time, so it probably wouldn’t have been for them.

2.  The templates and other activity creating items are great as long as your child is old enough to read and follow directions.  If not, the Bendaroos could very well turn into a parent project.  However, if stay at home parents need something creative to do with their kids, this would be great!

3.  Bendaroos are advertised on the As Seen On TV Store and Amazing Products as being for ages three and over, and I would definitely agree with this.  Although they are advertised as non-toxic, I wouldn’t want my three year old chewing on it or feeding it to the dog.

WELL, DO I BUY IT?

Although my grand kids are too young to enjoy Bendaroos, I give it a qualified yes.  Sounds like something neat for kids to do indoors while enduring another long, cold winter.  (Global warming, anyone?)  The only qualifications I have would be to confine the play area so the sticky wax doesn’t get spread all over the house, and to supervise play with younger kids.  The price isn’t too bad, so it’s a good valuefor money spent if it keeps the kids creatively occupied.



Interactive Dolls

Gen Wright asked:


so many varieties of toys for the kids who would love to play with them. The kids won?t be able to differentiate between the toys that are costly or cheap. According to them, the toys are just fun things to play with. So it is the responsibility of the parents to choose the toys that the kids like. There are basically two types of toys, one that is electronic and the other which is not electronic.

Now the parents has to decide what type of toys to get for their kids based on the budget and based on the age of the kids. For example for a kid who is under the age of say six, will wont be able to differentiate between an electronic toy and a non electronic toy. For these kids who are not that careful with the toys, it is preferable to buy them a cheap toy. Now when one says cheap toys, the first and most important thing that comes to mind is the wooden toys. These wooden toys are becoming a craze now days.

This is mainly because they are very cheap and there is a lot of innovation that goes in to these wooden toys. The wooden toys have a lot of advantages compared to the other electronic toys. This is because firstly they are cheap and they do not need much maintenance. Secondly they are risk free. For kids under the age of six years, they have a tendency to bite the toys.

In the case of wooden toys it is ok but in the case of electronic toys it might cause a mild shock because the batteries and electronic components are used. Also the wooden toys are environment friendly. In the case of plastic toys, it leads to pollution of the environment. But in the case of the wooden toys they are nature?s products and thus they are harmless to the environment. These wooden toys are liked by many kids mainly because they come in different colors.

Also now days the manufacturing companies give the option to the parents and kids, as to what wooden toys they need. Because not much equipments and technologies are used for the manufacture of the wooden toys, one can choose what toys their kid wants. There are several wooden toys that are available for kids who are between the ages of six to ten. These wooden toys are basically fitted with external wheels and allow the kids to run along with these wooden toys.

Though the wooden toys are little bit heavy which is a big disadvantage, it overcomes the advantage with the low cost and usability. When the kids grow up and there is no need for these wooden toys, then they can also be used in the show cases and they look very good as show pieces. The colors of these wooden toys attract the kids a lot. With the huge prices of electronic items, many parents are now buying a lot of environment friendly wooden toys for their kids.
