Every parent wants to give their children the best of everything. And, there is no better way to do that than by playing video games with them! There are a lot of different children’s video games out there for you and your children to play together, so it can be hard to know where to begin. That’s why here’s this list of 4 children-friendly video games that you should try out with your kids!

Minecraft

One of the most popular children’s games is Minecraft. If you’re looking for children’s video games, this game should be on your list. It has a lot of variety with the different worlds that children can explore and it also provides children with resources to make communities or houses in their world if they so choose.

 

The graphics are not as good as some other children’s computer games but this might help younger children easily learn how to use a mouse or keyboard without getting frustrated at complicated visuals they can’t yet understand.

 

Minecraft is available for Windows PCs, Macs, Linux systems like Android Phones (although phones are usually too small) iPhones, and iPads- which makes playing easier because players would only need one device instead of multiple ones!

 

There are other children’s games out there but the ones above are some of my favorites for children to play.

Mario Kart

Any famous Super Mario game can be played with children. Mario Kart is one of the most popular games that children can play because it’s a racing game and children can’t drive in real life yet.

 

-The object of the game is to reach the first place by driving around an oval racetrack while avoiding other drivers

 

-Pick any character you want, but make sure they fit your skill level; beginners might pick Mariokart or Toadstool for their first race

 

-Each driver has three items that can be used against other drivers – use wisely!

Super Smash Bros

Super Smash Bros. is a fighting-type game that children as young as five can play with their parents or other children. It’s the same concept of every time you want to fight, you pick your character and then try to beat up everyone else. The way that it makes this accessible for children is by having all the characters have tiny bodies so they are easier to control, plus there are no complicated combos to memorize in order to be successful at playing (although if you do read tutorials on how these work it will make things much more enjoyable).

 

One of its drawbacks is that because most people who play Super Smash Bros., including children, don’t bother reading manuals before getting started and tend not to use any strategy whatsoever, it’s somewhat difficult for children to get a good understanding of tactics.

 

– Video games are usually seen as something that kids should avoid because they’re supposedly too hard or not appropriate, but these video games prove otherwise and can make children smarter.

Lego Dimensions

When it comes to children and video games, Lego Dimensions is one of the best options.

 

This game has a wide range of children’s toys that can be purchased separately or as a bundle pack. The children play by placing the character on top of their toy (or “portal”) to get in-game access to new areas. It also includes six levels from different franchises such as Batman, Jurassic World, Doctor Who, and Scooby-Doo. This means that children will have plenty of worlds they are familiar with so it won’t seem all too strange for them!

 

It is very important when playing this game with children to make sure you don’t just tell them what to do – instead, let them solve puzzles themselves while providing guidance if needed. Games like that are considered to be some of the best games for children because they make them think creatively in order to solve a problem. Children need to feel as though they are in control of their own playtime so the best way to do this is by letting them explore and think for themselves.

 

The children will be able to use a variety of different Lego bricks – including helmets, capes, chest pieces, and weapons! This makes it much easier for children because they’ll be able to find something that suits what kind of character they want to create.

Disney Infinity 3.0 Edition

Another game children may enjoy is Disney Infinity. It is a children’s video game that has been designed for children and the children in their lives to play together with, it allows them to bring characters of some of Disney’s most popular franchises into one interactive gaming universe where they can create stories and adventures in a virtual “Toy Box” mode.

 

– You’ll be able to use touchpoints on the base pad or via a Bluetooth handheld controller (sold separately) – which also serves as your character’s movement device within the Toy Box world

 

– Players will be given access to all new figures including Star Wars’ Obi-Wan Kenobi figure from Force Awakens; Quorra from Tron Legacy; Lightning McQueen from Cars, Rey from Stars Wars: The Force Awakens.

Pokemon

Last but not least, Pokemon is one of the most popular games for children and parents alike. Kids can battle other players, earn badges and capture all 150 original Pokemon in this addictive RPG that you’ll be happy to play with your kids!

 

– You don’t need much time

 

– Works great on tablets or phones as well as computers

 

– Encourages socializing outside of technology

 

– No violence (except battling)

 

Another thing about why this game is good for children who love it because there is no violence other than just fighting battles etc. It also mentions what’s available – capturing all 150 original pokemon which encourages children to get out more often too. #PokemonGO was a trending hashtag last year so children have been anxiously waiting for this game.

 

With the right strategy, you can be a champion in any of these game worlds. It doesn’t matter if your child is playing Mario Kart or Disney Infinity – they’re always learning and processing new information to use this knowledge for success! Whether it’s navigating their way through an obstacle course with Minecraft or mastering tricks on a skateboard, there are plenty of ways that games like these can help kids develop skills that will last them well into adulthood. Keep up the good work!
