Very young child's games

[amenditman]

Hi,

My 9 month old son is very interested in "daddy's" computer activities.

I have been letting him pound the keys since he was born.

Now I want to know if you have any recommendations for very simple, colorful games with action which might be good for an enthusiastic baby.

I've looked around with apt://search?, but haven't found anythind for very young child.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
amenditman

Hi amenditman,

I have one 7 and the other 5. I'm trying to remember what interested them on my computer at 9 months and I can't think of a thing in particular... At that age, they just enjoy seeing colors, shapes and movement. You could go to the Wiggles website or the Scooby Doo website and play some of the games there and let him watch. As he gets older the good old standbys for kids are the potato guy and Kolourpaint. We had a thread going about this some time back... Let me see if I can find it...

Here it is... Link

Thanks for all your suggestions.

Obviously, at 9 months old, he will be growing into these activities.

Thank You
