Educational Computer Games

posted 9th Apr '12
I allow my 4 year old to go on www.nickjr.com for one hour a day max to play educational games. I limit her so she doesn't become addicted, but some family members of ours are saying that allowing her to play anything at all on the computer is bad parenting on my part. Anybody think I'm wrong for allowing her to play ONLY educational games for ONLY 1 hour?

I think it is fine. DD loves Nick and Disney. They are learning. What is so bad?

That's totally fine and it's great she's being exposed to a computer early on.
I have a subscription to abcmouse.com and it has lesson plans on it for LO. I like it better than nickjr.com but I let LO play on both.

I'm so glad that other parents see my point of view...it's not like LO is getting into anything bad. She's learning and having fun while doing so. I limit her so she doesn't get addicted and don't budge when she wants more time. I didn't see anything wrong with her being on it.
