Only have a 21 month old atm but will not be against video games inherently. In fact I can't wait to play something easy like minecraft etc with my children. We will probably play a mix of games both old and new eventually.
Our LO is only 23 months so we don't really do screen time yet but when we do, we're definitely going to introduce retro games first. We have a lot of the classic systems so we're going to let her play everything in chronological order of release when she's old enough!
My 3 year old sometimes plays Mario kart with me but he doesn't know how to play- somehow he doesn't always lose though 🤔😅 he does like watching us game but obviously we pick the games carefully so they aren't violent etc he likes watching me play stardew valley and he watches my partner play a farming simulator game.
My 4 year old has been playing this game called tear down, it's like Minecraft but there are cars and stuff. He said good at it and he loves it and it's pretty entertaining to watch. He loves to park the cars and he calls out Bad parkers when we get out in public.
My 3yo plays party games on the Switch like Mario Kart, Overcooked, Just Dance or Rabbids Party of Legends. I don't want him to play alone so I prefer multiplayer games that we can play together. He played some Zelda games as well (OoT and TotK) but he's basically just running around so he prefers to watch me play. He gets super invested in the side quests and tells me what to do.
Almost 4 year old likes playing Marvel Rivals on practice mode and she also likes playing Candy Crush! Only plays them on occasion as we dont want her to get too use to it and start expecting it lol
