Wii Best Family Outdoor Fun Game Giveaway

The first thing my son packs for any family vacation road trip is a game system. I’m always glad when he brings it, because as a family we love playing multi-player games in the evenings or if the weather prohibits an outdoor adventure.

When we aren’t traveling, the neighbors will stop by for a visit on the back patio. The kids break out the games and before we realize it, we have a neighborhood game-fest in progress.

The entire neighborhood was excited when a package arrived at the door late the other evening. It included copies of a brand new Wii game. We broke open the package and tried out Family Party: 30 Great Games Outdoor Fun.

I was Ninja Mom, while the kids raced boats at Summer Camp. My husband enjoyed the family football game. There are even board games and many other types of games to keep a family entertained. I wouldn’t suggest this for the smaller kids because there is a small bit of mild cartoon violence, but for the 10 and up crowd, we’re good to go!

Here’s what the company says:

Bring the outdoors in with the greatest value in family entertainment—Family Party: 30 Great Games Outdoor Fun has something to offer everyone exclusively on the Wii™ with a wide variety of engaging and addictive party games featuring martial arts, team sports, individual athletics, and challenging brain games. Players can choose from over a dozen cute characters, participate in up to four player competitive action, and unlock games and challenges to achieve the highest score and win medals! Offering hours of at-home entertainment, Family Party: 30 Great Games Outdoor Fun is a great value at $19.95 and a perfect follow-up to the 2008 smash-hit for families and friends to enjoy together.

Want to win a copy of Family Party: 30 Great Games Outdoor Fun? Just leave a comment stating if you think it is okay to allow kids to play video games while traveling. That’s all! One entry per email address. Contest ends September 29, 2009 at 11:59pm with winner being announce sometime the next day. US residents only. Must be 18 to enter.

I not only think it’s OKAy to let them play video games when traveling, I encourage it, especially on a plane.
Gary said on September 25th, 2009 at 6:58 am

I think it’s a great idea to allow kids to play games while traveling, Kids can get so bored in the car on long trips which can stress everyone out, and games help keep them occupied.
Kim said on September 25th, 2009 at 7:02 am

I think it’s great. Keeps their minds occupied and helps the driver maintain focus on the road without having to worry about the kids in the back!
Gillian Goshine said on September 25th, 2009 at 7:26 am

It’s a great way to pass the time when you drive. If I don’t have to hear ‘Are we there yet?’ I’m all for it
Cristi said on September 25th, 2009 at 7:47 am

I always try to keep my kids occupied while traveling. We play games or read.
Rebecca Sias said on September 25th, 2009 at 8:25 am

I think that it ok for kids to play games while they are traveling. On long trips is really does keep them occupied and not bored. There is nothing worse the kids being bored in a vehicle for hours.
Patricia Wagner said on September 25th, 2009 at 8:28 am

I think it is fine for letting kids play video games while traveling. Helps to keep them from getting bored and asking a million times are we there yet.
Abby said on September 25th, 2009 at 8:30 am

Most definitely especially while waiting forever in airports!
Gudrun said on September 25th, 2009 at 8:45 am

funny you mention it! We have Nintendo DSs that only come out when we travel, and only on the plane. Up until last year, we were very much about books, games and other activities for the plane, but I have to tell you, the DS has freed us up to enjoy our trip more, especially during one of the more stressful parts (flying!). It is not for everyone, but certainly works for us…
ted roebuck said on September 25th, 2009 at 8:48 am

need this our granbabies
Jennifer Riles said on September 25th, 2009 at 10:19 am

I totally agree with you about packing the games. My son packs his just to go somewhere for 2 days!! It ends up being a great source of entertainment for out entire family.
Paul Rice said on September 25th, 2009 at 10:20 am

I have no problem with them playing video games while traveling or resting in the hotel/cabin. I think you need to make sure you set ground rules and make sure that they know that when we’re doing family activities that the games are left behind.
Sarah Parkin said on September 25th, 2009 at 10:27 am

Keeping kids occupied and interested is key to taking them on vacation. Keeping kids busy in a hotel room can help families maintain their sanity.
Kathy Scott said on September 25th, 2009 at 10:40 am

Sure it keeps them occupied.
Deb K said on September 25th, 2009 at 10:54 am

I think it is fine to let kids play as it not only makes them happy but the parents too 🙂
Margaret Smith said on September 25th, 2009 at 11:25 am

I really don’t see a problems with them playing video games while traveling. Keeps them happy and makes the time go quicker for them. Thanks.
Bryan Sylvain said on September 25th, 2009 at 12:43 pm

I think it’s great… wish I had them when I was on a long family trip!
Tracey Byram said on September 25th, 2009 at 1:37 pm

My family drove cross country when I was 10 and the only thing to do in the car was play I Spy, Car Bingo or sleep. I would have welcomed video games to keep me occupied.
adrienne Gordon said on September 25th, 2009 at 2:16 pm

yes, it is not like they can be moving around.
Jill L said on September 25th, 2009 at 2:59 pm

I think it’s perfect for when you are stuck inside because of the weather. I’m definitely for anything that keeps kids entertained when traveling. Usually if we are going through some really cool area, I make all games or tv get turned off so we can check things out, otherwise if I’m making the 9 hour trip back home with 3 kids by myself….whatever works.
Patricia Hill said on September 25th, 2009 at 3:03 pm

Yes, it is okay to let kids play video games while traveling. It keeps them occupies when otherwise they would be bored.
Susan Newman said on September 25th, 2009 at 4:32 pm

Yes I agree kids should be allowed to play. It helps pass the time.
Shannon Baas said on September 25th, 2009 at 4:34 pm

In the car yes but they should be doing other stuff otherwise.
susan varney said on September 25th, 2009 at 5:10 pm

if it keeps them happy why not . mverno@roadrunner.com
Emily said on September 25th, 2009 at 5:39 pm

Wish we would have had these games when I was a kid……….absoluyely play games when traveling
Stephanie V said on September 25th, 2009 at 5:46 pm

Yes, if it keeps them occupied and quiet for a short period of time – great!

AMY B. said on September 25th, 2009 at 6:00 pm

I think it’s a great idea for kids to play them while traveling. It keeps them entertained.
ky2here said on September 25th, 2009 at 6:22 pm

Of course it’s OK. Can you imagine having to deal with them if they weren’t distracted?
sandy said on September 25th, 2009 at 7:17 pm

yes very much ok
Michelle Draveski said on September 25th, 2009 at 7:17 pm

Its 100 percent better then listening to are we there yet for 500 miles
Daniel M said on September 25th, 2009 at 8:03 pm

sure, better than nonstop ‘are we there yet’
Jennifer V said on September 25th, 2009 at 9:06 pm

Yes, I think it is okay. Traveling is so boring and if that keeps kids happy and passes the time, more power to them!
Meghan McFadden said on September 26th, 2009 at 2:44 am

We are big gamers in this family so I absolutely think it’s fine to use game systems while traveling. As with everything in life, the key is moderation. Thanks for the contest opportunity!
Pamela Callahan said on September 26th, 2009 at 7:24 am

Maybe in the car for long rides – but once at our destination, I say video games are off limits until we leave to go home!
Claire said on September 26th, 2009 at 8:05 am

Yes! What else are they going to do in the downtime between activities?
carol said on September 26th, 2009 at 8:18 am

I think it is ok…it keeps them busy while traveling…thanks for the great giveaway
Erin Cook said on September 26th, 2009 at 8:27 am

I think it will keep the kids distracted especially on a long road trip
Sharon Hindman said on September 26th, 2009 at 9:08 am

I think it is ok to let your kids play video games while traveling, however as soon as you get to your destination make them put it away. It is now family time!
Shilo Beedy said on September 26th, 2009 at 9:26 am

I think it would be alright when your traveling but I would make them put up the games once we got where we were goin.
Elena said on September 26th, 2009 at 10:24 am

Oh yeah–playing on their DS’s are what keep my kids from picking at each other the whole way there! Thanks for the contest!
Linda said on September 26th, 2009 at 10:53 am

Oh yes,playing video games while traveling is a good idea, keeps them busy and quiet.
jeff wilson said on September 26th, 2009 at 11:43 am

if only to preserve my wife’s sanity it is okay to allow the kids to play video games!
Brianne said on September 26th, 2009 at 11:46 am

I think it’s okay if your in the car or plane. I don’t think kids should play games while they are family activities to do or that type of thing.
Kathleen said on September 26th, 2009 at 12:05 pm

I think it’s perfectly fine to let children play video games while traveling because it keeps piece of home with them at all times plus keeps them busy on a long plane or car trip, if the system is portable. Thanks.

paul haddock said on September 26th, 2009 at 12:08 pm

We play some games with them… family time of any flavor is good
Sheila Fiske said on September 26th, 2009 at 12:39 pm

My kids play travel hockey, so yes, I do allow them to play video games. It is great for the whole family to play.
Sara Thompson said on September 26th, 2009 at 2:17 pm

Yes I think is ok while traveling, it keeps them busy!
AB Smith said on September 26th, 2009 at 2:38 pm

my kids play while traveling and while waiting at restaurants – love it!!!!

I’d love to win this prize, thanks for sponsoring this.

2kidsblogger(at)gmail(dot)com
Deborah Wellenstein said on September 26th, 2009 at 3:44 pm

Why not? The kids play video games anyway! Thanks!
Annette E said on September 26th, 2009 at 4:27 pm

Yes, it’s okay because it’ll keep them from being bored.
Mary Casper said on September 26th, 2009 at 4:53 pm

I think video games are great for the kids as long as parents control the content and the amount of time the game is played.
Kerrie Mayans said on September 26th, 2009 at 5:27 pm

Yes, we often travel from Seattle to KS via our car so we definitely bring all kinds of video games for the 26+ hour drive. We have a game cube and an original x-box that we can hook to the dvd player in our van and we have two DS’s as well to keep us sane during the drive and once we get to grandma’s house, there isn’t alot to do so I let hte kids play video games so they aren’t breaking grandma’s vintage china or depression glass.
Jason Zander said on September 26th, 2009 at 6:01 pm

Video games while traveling makes the ride a much more enoyable experience for all.
Kathy Luman said on September 26th, 2009 at 6:05 pm

Yes I think it is okay for kids to play video games while traveling. I would think it would keep there minds occupied instead of asking how much long all the time. I would be picking out the games though. There are some out there that I don’t think are very suitable for children.
Stacy said on September 26th, 2009 at 7:14 pm

I don’t think it’s a good idea for a kid to zone out totally during a really long trip but if you can allow video games for short periods of time interpersed with conversation and other games, I think it’s fine.
Monique Rizzo said on September 26th, 2009 at 9:15 pm

My daughter loves playing video games while traveling. It helps the time pass quickly. Thanks for the chance.
mogrill@comcast.net
Nora SP said on September 26th, 2009 at 10:53 pm

I think it is fine in moderation.
john urbigkeit said on September 26th, 2009 at 11:02 pm

Video games make a trip with the kids easy! Cool site thanks
Lucy Schwartz said on September 26th, 2009 at 11:25 pm

Video games do help the miles melt away and definitely decreases the “Are we there yet?” refrain.
Cynthia C said on September 27th, 2009 at 5:01 am

I think it’s OK for part of the time. Sometimes I think it’s nice for them to take in the scenery and learn something about different parts of the country.
Randall Curran said on September 27th, 2009 at 5:11 am

If you have ever been on a long road trip without video games for the kids to play with I’m sure you’ll agree, as I do, it’s not only okay to allow it’s a needed item to maintain your sanity.
Erica C. said on September 27th, 2009 at 8:39 am

As long as it’s not all day of playing, it’s perfectly fine!
Sherri B. said on September 27th, 2009 at 10:19 am

I think playing video games in the car on the way to a vacation spot is fine if they keep the volume down. I prefer them to not play while on vacation unless they are absolutely bored out of their mind. Thanks!

Jennifer Beedie said on September 27th, 2009 at 10:43 am

I have no problem with my son playing video games when we travel in fact on long car trips I encourage it. lol
Jennifer said on September 27th, 2009 at 1:00 pm

We let our son play his DS while traveling in the car on road trips. We also take either our Wii or Playstation 2 when we are going to stay in a hotel to play a little in the evenings. Then we all can still spend time doing something together as a family instead of sitting and watching tv.
Tari Lawson said on September 27th, 2009 at 3:04 pm

I let my kids play video games while traveling on long trips. I find they only play for 30 minutes to an hour total anyway so no big deal.
Laura P. said on September 27th, 2009 at 4:56 pm

It is totally okay to let your children play video games while traveling especially longer distances. Video games get a bad rap sometimes but there are a lot of decent ones out there. Moderation is key.
colleen said on September 27th, 2009 at 7:02 pm

letting my son play videogames while travelling keeps me sane!!!
Sarah Z said on September 27th, 2009 at 9:18 pm

I think it’s fine – of course I wish mine would read but that’s never going to happen so…. video games it is!
christopher h said on September 27th, 2009 at 9:43 pm

i think its great for kids to have something to play during long drives
Storm said on September 27th, 2009 at 10:00 pm

I think it’s OK while on the plane or in the car, and of course like you pointed out, if the weather is bad. It’s a lot better than bored kids goofing around and annoying other travelers!
Ashley said on September 27th, 2009 at 10:38 pm

i think its great while traveling to and from the destination.. we are always too busy while actually at our destination to think about video games
Christine said on September 27th, 2009 at 10:38 pm

I think it is fine. Traveling can be stressful for anyone so it is nice for kids to have a distraction sometimes. Thanks for the chance!!!
Michael said on September 27th, 2009 at 10:43 pm

I believe several – but not all – video games offer value and what better way to break up some of the monotony and/or stress of travel than to find a form of entertainment that you can take with you! 😉
Dave said on September 27th, 2009 at 10:53 pm

I see nothing wrong with kids playing video games while traveling. Travel can be tedious for adults and absolute torture for kids. Best to keep them occupied with something fun. Thank you for the chance to win.
Sheila Veit said on September 28th, 2009 at 6:47 am

nice prize
sara marcy said on September 28th, 2009 at 7:20 am

i dont have a problem with this, if you have ever been on a long road trip you would understand, but i think that it should be used in moderation!!
Nicole D. said on September 28th, 2009 at 7:51 am

I think its ok, as long as the amount of time is limited. When stuck in the car, I’ll do anything to keep the kids entertained!
Deedles said on September 28th, 2009 at 8:40 am

I think it’s fine for part of the traveling time. We also read books and enjoy the scenery.
vicki wurgler said on September 28th, 2009 at 8:46 am

yes, I think it’s a great idea while traveling-makes riding in the car more enjoyable for everyone!
Jennifer said on September 28th, 2009 at 10:01 am

Yes! While I agree that video games are good only in moderation, travel is one of their best times. Fun and educational video games are best, but anything to keep the kids occupied or happy when in for a long drive or plane ride.
Denise B. said on September 28th, 2009 at 10:36 am

No, I don’t think it’s okay to play video games while travelling. Whenever children are playing video games or have ear buds stuck in their ears from iPods, etc., they become disassociated with the rest of the family. They also become oblivious to all the things they see along the way in their travels.
Troy said on September 28th, 2009 at 10:37 am

While driving or flying playing video games keeps young minds active and engaged. However, once at the destination or visiting, the videal games should be put away.
Tarah said on September 28th, 2009 at 12:27 pm

While in route to the destination I think it’s OK to play games – reading would be better but both would work. While on vacation and touring – visiting the destination – no gaming allowed.
Dddiva said on September 28th, 2009 at 12:31 pm

Absolutely I think it is okay- the point is to do things TOGETHER and if you all enjoy playing, then play.
Molly K said on September 28th, 2009 at 12:56 pm

I think it’s okay as long as you limit the amount of time they are playing them. A car ride can be very boring for kids, heck it’s boring for me, so I think anything that helps pass the time is fine. Once we are at the destination I think other things should be done instead of video games but they can also come in handy while I’m trying to get ready for the day or as a wind down at the end of the day.
shawna said on September 28th, 2009 at 2:13 pm

I think it’s ok if the drive is not distracted and there is a time limit..children should enjoy the scenery as well!
Jason said on September 28th, 2009 at 2:17 pm

I do. It really cuts down on the frustrating feature you have when traveling with kids

jason(at)allworldautomotive(dot)com
angela c said on September 28th, 2009 at 2:19 pm

I think that is fine to play video games while traveling especially if you have a long car ride.
Saebbe Reidhead said on September 28th, 2009 at 2:25 pm

While traveling I think anything that keeps them quiet is a good thing, even if it’s video games. I don’t know how they do it though I get nauseous just reading a knitting pattern in the car.
katie said on September 28th, 2009 at 2:55 pm

I definitely think video games can be allowed during travel, depending on the child, especially if the game promotes learning or family bonding!
Jill Myrick said on September 28th, 2009 at 3:45 pm

As long as the video game that the child is playing is age and content appropriate I think that they are a wonderful idea while traveling.
To me it allows the parent that is driving to be able to pay more attention to the road versus breaking up arguments,screaming etc.
Thank you so much for the chance to win.
Aaron Schock said on September 28th, 2009 at 4:17 pm

Personally, I would try something other than video games but I can understand that some parents would disagree.
Bambi M said on September 28th, 2009 at 4:49 pm

I think video games are OK, but they shouldn’t be used for the whole journey. Taking time to point out interesting things, playing I Spy or singing along to songs would give children’s eyes a rest from watching the screen.
Julie K said on September 28th, 2009 at 5:16 pm

I love the video games that my kids play. Most of them are full of puzzles and encourage logic and persistence. So, yes, I think it’s fine for kids to play while traveling.
Hector said on September 28th, 2009 at 5:20 pm

yes as long as they don’t puke
Jenn H said on September 28th, 2009 at 5:31 pm

Absolutely. While traveling. That means in a car, train, plane or boat. But as soon as the destination is reached the game goes away and we enjoy the vacation as a family.
jackie said on September 28th, 2009 at 5:44 pm

I think it’s okay. The parents should be aware of the game and around when it’s played.
brooke said on September 28th, 2009 at 7:00 pm

While traveling HECK YA… However, I’m the Mom that wants the games to be educational and have tried to only get educational games for them… It makes the trips seem shorter and if there is no tv, pool, etc at the stops along the way a little family game time is fun..
Julie said on September 28th, 2009 at 7:19 pm

Looks like a fun game.
Karen said on September 28th, 2009 at 7:22 pm

Yes I think it’s fine, I wish I had been able to play them in the car when I was growing up!
Helen S said on September 28th, 2009 at 7:33 pm

Yes I think that it is OK. They can get bored easy. We also like to play other games while traveling such as I Spy.
Jammie said on September 28th, 2009 at 8:37 pm

Yes I think it is ok for kids to play games while traveling. My daughter often carries her ds or her mp3 layer recently we started playing ISpy which is more educational and she loves it.
Tiffany said on September 28th, 2009 at 8:53 pm

Yes it’s okay! My kids like playing video games sometimes especially in the car.
Kristelh said on September 28th, 2009 at 8:54 pm

Sure, I think it is fine. Thanks for the giveaway!
theodore esteghamat said on September 28th, 2009 at 9:32 pm

Yes, it’s ok. I wish I could have when I was a kid.
Mia J. said on September 28th, 2009 at 10:05 pm

I think it is fine for kids to play their games while traveling. I also think it is great to listen to music and try to learn something about the place we are traveling to.
Leslie D. said on September 28th, 2009 at 10:13 pm

Sure, I think it is okay to allow children to play video games when a family is on vacation or traveling. It is great to make up games, as well, or to do the ever popular “Eye Spy.” I always point out things that I see that are interesting and make our daughter stop what she is doing to see it also. Thanks for the giveaway!
Melanie said on September 28th, 2009 at 10:37 pm

Like in the car?
Well, I think its ok , but carsickness runs in our family.
So probably not a good idea, and in the hotel..no I don’t think so.
Care rides can be boring, so thats understandable, but once we reach the destitination its family time.
Mishia said on September 29th, 2009 at 3:29 am

I absolutely think it is okay for kids to play games while traveling. As long as it keeps them occupied and has the appropriate ratings, I don’t see why not.
Kristi Gilleland said on September 29th, 2009 at 3:32 am

Ok? I think that is the ONLY way to travel long distances. I can understand them in the day, wanting to make sure they see the sights, talk and engage, but at night? Get out the games!
Renee Borders said on September 29th, 2009 at 5:41 am

Yes, yes, yes! 🙂
Jeanette H. said on September 29th, 2009 at 5:47 am

I do not see a problem with them playing video games while traveling. It makes the time pass faster for them and you don’t here “are we there yet” all the way there. We like to take road trips which usually means 10 hours in the car. My kids don’t play lots of video games but I have them bring their hand held system in case they choose to.

Thank you for the great giveaway!

Alison said on September 29th, 2009 at 7:13 am

It keeps them happy…I think its a great idea
Sheila Hickmon said on September 29th, 2009 at 7:24 am

I think it’s okay. They get bored. It helps pass the time. My daughter would be allowed to.
Elizabeth J said on September 29th, 2009 at 7:56 am

We have always let our kids play video games while traveling – keeps them quiet!
Jessica said on September 29th, 2009 at 8:09 am

I think it’s fine in moderation, especially if you’ll be traveling awhile. Anything that keeps them entertained is great!
Jeff said on September 29th, 2009 at 8:23 am

I think it is fine. I wish I had any one of these great conveniences that kids have today. All I ever got was the hump seat ….
Sarah Hirsch said on September 29th, 2009 at 8:34 am

I think video games and TV are both fine for travel. They can’t be up and moving about (exercising) anyway, they may as well be entertained!
Jaclyn Reynolds said on September 29th, 2009 at 8:59 am

We haven’t but I’m not against it.
Dalton said on September 29th, 2009 at 9:17 am

Fine with it, as long as it only comes out when it’s raining.
Justine said on September 29th, 2009 at 9:53 am

Of course it’s fine to let kids play video games while traveling, I can’t think of any reason not to?! Anything that keeps my kids occupied and not fighting is great in my opinion lol 😀 I know I would’ve wanted to when I was their age, in fact I still do 😉
Steffany Elkins said on September 29th, 2009 at 10:54 am

My son would drive me crazy with ” are we there yet” if he didnt have his DS.
Gloria said on September 29th, 2009 at 11:25 am

I think it’s alright! Why not.
Becky said on September 29th, 2009 at 12:13 pm

I think it’s ok to allow them to play video games while traveling. Not all day/night but once in a while.
Jennifer B. said on September 29th, 2009 at 12:20 pm

I think that it is okay to let them play while traveling, but like most things… in moderation. Make sure they stop and enjoy the trip.
Susan Smith said on September 29th, 2009 at 12:37 pm

My kids play their DS on car trips
Paula Harmon said on September 29th, 2009 at 12:59 pm

Yes, its ok to play video games while traveling! It helps keep everyone quiet and probably has prevented me from getting in an accident! (I’m talking about a 600 mile trip from MI to NC, about a 12 hour drive!)
Tim Hughes said on September 29th, 2009 at 1:10 pm

Our kids play video games all the time when traveling. As long as they take time to look out the window and enjoy the scenary once in awhile, more power to them.
titletowntreasures(AT)yahoo(DOT)com
katiea said on September 29th, 2009 at 1:24 pm

Anything that keeps them quite (as long as it doesn’t induce car sickness) is ok with me! Thanks for the contest, our wii doesn’t get a whole lot of use these days, maybe this would help.

I think it’s ok as long as you limit the amount of time

traveling with the video game system is fine. Same as always, everything in moderation.

In moderation sure but not if all they want to do is play video games instead of participating in family activities.

I think video games are fine to pass the time, as long as they are seeing some sites as we go along too!

Aarrgghh! Do they have to be everywhere? I think vacations are a good time to do other things rather than video games. So I vote NO! Thanks for the contest.

I think it’s ok .. My kids bring their Ds Lites and DVD players on trips, it keeps them busy & they are fighting less. Also , I took my wii & wiifit when we went to camp for the week. I still needed to exercise. And Just in case weather permits only indoors activity-we can play as a family.

I think it’s a great idea to allow children to play video games while traveling! It keeps them entertained and happy.

I won’t travel with out my own video games to play during the long ride. I think it keeps the kids busy and some games are educational!!! shhh I won’t tell the kids brain age makes them smarter:)

Yes, but in moderation.

I think it’s fine to let children play video games while travrling.
Cindy B said on September 29th, 2009 at 7:43 pm

Yes, anything to keep them occupied to get from point a to point b. We are satisfied that other times are spent on a variety of things that the time spent travelling playing video games isn’t a big deal. Thanks for a great giveaway!

Yes it is fine to allow kids to play video games while travelling. Parents too.
Sand said on September 29th, 2009 at 8:54 pm

I think it’s fine, I’m not a fan of violent games but each parent has a different opinion on what is violent.

I guess we do, since the first thing in my daughter’s bag when we travel is her Nintendo DS, we also do cruises, and so my daughter spends most of her time in the kids club playing video games lol!

Yes I think it’s okay as long as they don’t play for hours and hours, don’t fight or get car sick 🙂
Donna K said on September 29th, 2009 at 9:51 pm

Sure, I think it is OK esp. while in the car or on the plane.
Heather C said on September 29th, 2009 at 9:56 pm

Yes, indeed. Especially if they use headphones. It keeps them occupied and happy…for the most part, unless they are frustrated with the way the game is going for them. lol
Gianna said on September 29th, 2009 at 10:08 pm

They have fun and it keeps them occupied 🙂
