Hi @jaminson that is correct indeed! Of course, it depends on the games kids are playing.I have read that computer games can be useful for kids and develop their thinking skills. Is it true ?
When you talk about 'thinking skills', I immediately think about child-friendly mobile games like Candy Crush Saga, 'Unblock the ball', 'Flow Free', 'Unblock Me' and Water Pipes for example. These games also help with strategy skills and problem solving skills for example.
Games can have strong benefits for the development of children as long as they have a healthy balance with other important aspects which I shortly highlighted in this post:
Regarding the 'healthy gaming' thing:
Gotta love acronymsHere's a model I call the 'Spel Schijf van Vijf' in the Netherlands. It's been in the news multiple times. In English I simply call it 5S-system. It consists of:
1. Sleep
2. Study
3. Sports
4. Social life
5. Screens
