Another kind of bad

OK, to me, the purpose of computer games is basically to keep the kids busy for a bit while I am doing something else. Which means that I don't do computer games for 2 years olds, since I don't want them using my computer in my absence! And I really don't want them bugging me to use the computer once I've got them interested!

(2 is a tough age -- 2 was when my kids would about lose their minds if they had been watching TV and then I turned it off, whereas now (for the most part!) when I say its time to be done, I get grumbles but compliance. )

I do let my 4yo use the computer, just PBS kids right now. I may dig out the old Jump Start preschool discs and see if they are compatible with our newer computers.
