In this episode of Pixel Parenting, I kick off a special two-part series on introducing video games to children.
In Part One, I share when it’s the right time to start gaming—covering age guidelines and developmental milestones, from avoiding screens for infants to using simple, educational games for preschoolers, and gradually increasing playtime as children grow older. I also discuss the importance of balancing gaming with activities like outdoor play, reading, and creative hobbies, and explain how to evaluate game content using tools like ESRB, PEGI, and Common Sense Media. I share my own journey—from my college days of being hooked on World of Warcraft to enjoying RPGs like Baldur’s Gate 3 with my husband—emphasizing that if your child isn’t naturally drawn to video games, there’s no need to force it. Join me as I dive into expert recommendations and practical strategies for helping your kids navigate our digital world thoughtfully.
