I got a very cheap computer of ebay, it works, it will connect to the internet but is very slow so not sure if games etc on cbbebies would work so wonded if anyone has any kids cd rom games for ages around 3yrs and upwards that their children can enjoy and which ones you would suggest.
years ago mine used a computer then we got rid of it and non of them missed it so we havent really used a computer since but this one was such a good price at £15 and as my laptops screen is dodgy I coudlnt resist buying it for work then I thought the childrne could use it too.
I am assuming we are still allowed to let children use 'real' computers! , I prefer them to play and be outside but the 2yrold well, nearly 3yrold, just dosent get how to play with toys and indoors will just sit and look at books all day or hold a toy in his hand but do nothing with it or outside will just roll balls down the guttering, he plays when the older kids come home from school but thats only because they are including him in their game and telling him what to do in their pretend play so I am wondering if a bit of computer time would hold his interest and if it does then we can develop the imagination from there.
