Picking Video Games for Children

First, I have to say I am not big on video games. But if you have to have one I feel that the Wii system is much more family friendly than the other systems, with much less violent games. Also the kids are up and moving with the Wii and interacting with other people. The whole family can even 'go bowling' on the Wii system. I also found a web site that helps parents find out a little bit more about the different games available. It is what they play, just go under the game system at the top of the site and then find the game from there. And, of course, set a time limit so the kids can get back to doing something creative!
