Alright, let’s gab about these here computer games for school, the kind you play on them Chromebook thingamajigs. Kids these days, always fiddlin’ with them screens. But hey, if they gotta be on ’em, might as well be doin’ somethin’ that ain’t gonna rot their brains, ya know?
So, first off, there’s this “Little Alchemy” game. Now, I ain’t no scientist or nothin’, but from what I hear, it’s like you’re mixin’ stuff together, like them old-timey alchemists. You start with air, water, fire, and earth, and then you just keep combin’ ’em. Makes mud, then makes plants, then makes all sorts of crazy things. Sounds like a good way to get them young’uns thinkin’ without ’em even knowin’ it. Keeps ’em busy, that’s for sure. Heard it’s good for passin’ the time between classes or after school when they done with their schoolin’ for the day.
Then there’s this “*” game. Folks say it’s one of them shooter games, you know, like bang-bang, pew-pew. I ain’t too keen on them shootin’ games, but I guess if it ain’t too violent, it might be alright. Kids like that kinda stuff, makes ’em feel all big and tough. But you gotta keep an eye on ’em, make sure they ain’t gettin’ too riled up. It’s important they ain’t learnin’ nothin’ bad from it. They say it’s a browser game, means you don’t gotta download nothin’, just play it right there on the internet. Easy peasy.
Now, this here “Khan Academy Kids” sounds right up my alley. See, I always told my grandbabies, learnin’ is important, even if it’s on that there computer. This here game, it’s all about learnin’, but they make it fun, ya know? Like, they learnin’ their ABCs and 123s, but it’s all colorful and singin’ and dancin’. Kids love that stuff. It’s like trickin’ ’em into learnin’, which, if you ask me, is the best kind of learnin’. Keeps their little minds sharp and gets them ready for school. It is a real good way for them young’uns to get ahead.
- So, you got your thinkin’ game, “Little Alchemy”.
- You got your shootin’ game, “*” (but watch out for them gettin’ too wild!).
- And you got your learnin’ game, “Khan Academy Kids”.
Now, how do you get these games on that Chromebook? Well, it ain’t rocket science, that’s for sure. You gotta go to that “Launcher” thingy, looks like a little circle in the corner of the screen. Then you type in the name of the game or somethin’ like it, and if you already got it, you just click on it. If you ain’t got it, you gotta download it, which means you gotta have that internet thingy workin’. Kids these days, they know all about this stuff, probably better than me!
But remember, too much screen time ain’t good for nobody. Kids gotta go outside, play in the dirt, get some fresh air. These games are fine for a little bit, but they ain’t a replacement for good old-fashioned playin’. And make sure they ain’t playin’ these games when they supposed to be doin’ their homework or listenin’ to the teacher. School comes first, that’s what I always say. Gotta learn them how to be responsible, or they’ll be in a world of trouble when they grow up. Teachin’ responsibility is just as important as any lesson. So, let ’em have their fun, but keep an eye on ’em and make sure they ain’t overdoin’ it.
There are a lot of other games out there too, but these are just a few that folks have been talkin’ about. Just gotta find what works for your kids and what you feel comfortable with them playin’. And remember, a little bit of fun is good for the soul, even if it’s on that there computer screen.
