Wii.

Our kids have saved up their own money and bought themselves a Wii.  That's what's going on at our house right now.  As soon as noon gets here, which is the screentime end time on Saturday, they'll be in here begging for more time.  I haven't decided if I'll give it to them or not.  It's wet and rainy outside (AGAIN), so I may let them have a bit more.  It's different from other video games in that it is at least a little bit active.  They've got Wii sports and Wii play.   I need to think of a  plan for when they ask ... make them clean the house or something for more time.   Hey, a mom's gotta get some benefit from this thing, right?  Yesterday, before I'd let them go shopping with their Dad for it, I made them find a library book that they had lost and was overdue!

  1. We love our Wii. I got Wii Fit and have done it every day for almost 6 months.

    The one thing I don't like about the Wii is the Miis sportsmanship. They need a little better attitude. They get all depressed when they lose a game. The dance just a little too happily when they win. Not what an overly sensitive kid needs. She's crushed when her Mii is unhappy.
