A Few Great Games Parents Can Play With Their Kids
I have a few potential games in mind that may be appealing to both parents and children.
Quality time is important for families.
It’s no surprise that kids nowadays no longer want to go outside and throw a ball back and forth with their parents. It must be challenging for parents to spend time with their kids doing something the kid actually likes to do.
So why not get into gaming? Most kids nowadays already play a bunch of games.
Parents can use this to their advantage to spend a little more time doing what the kids want to do.
I have a few potential games in mind that may be appealing to both candidates. The first game is called FIFA.
FIFA is a soccer sports game that can be played online or locally with multiple controllers.
In my opinion, this is a great game to play with your kids if they’re interested in sports.
This is a fairly harmless game since the whole gaming is revolved around the game of soccer.
This game can also influence kids to participate in real-life soccer at school or with their friends.
I believe it could lead to some real bonding time. It’s not just soccer, either.
There are a bunch of different sports games, such as NBA2K, which is a basketball game.
The second game is called Minecraft.
I’m sure you’ve heard of Minecraft since it has been one of the most popular video games for the past decade.
Minecraft is a no-brainer since most kids probably already play this game by themselves or with their friends.
Minecraft is survival or creative game which can be played however you want.
You could create a creative world and just build whatever structures you want with your kids.
Or you can create a survival world where you can work together with your kids to survive, gather supplies and defeat enemies.
If I ever have kids, I will definitely be playing Minecraft with them.
The third game is called Stardew Valley.
Stardew Valley is a simulation role-playing video game with an interesting story.
It has very peaceful and relaxing gameplay, which can be very easy to get the hang of.
The gameplay consists of farming, cooking, crafting, gathering, and exploring the world.
Think of it as a 2D peaceful version of Minecraft.
You can interact with characters in your town and create relationships with them.
I haven’t played Stardew Valley, but from the little time that I’ve had with it, I can positively say it’s a peaceful experience.
I know that it can be difficult for parents to connect with their kids nowadays.
But through gaming, that struggle can be a lot easier.
In fact, one of my uncles told me he was able to connect with his son (my cousin) a lot more after learning how to play Minecraft.
They have their own survival world where they play together mostly on weekends.
So I’ve seen this bonding method work myself.
If you currently play games with your kids, let me know by leaving a comment in the comments section.
Thank you for reading my story.
I would love to read your comment about it.
