<![CDATA[Latest games for young teens]]>Hi,


I’m thinking to get a tech toy for my 12yo girl. Not getting Ipad2 cos I have an iPad, and waiting for iPad3 to be out… maybe getting a NDS (what’s the latest model)? or PSP? i’m have been out of date for these ‘toys’ for a while?

Or is there any other interesting toys in the market?


Thanks!

Thanks for the recommendations 🙂


I prefer portable ones.. it's more personal.

Wockets, the Kindle is not avail in SG ya? iPad blocked the apps download for Kindle..

PSP vita just launched this week, means not avail in SG yet right?

Cheers

I'm thinking of Andriod too.. Galaxy tab good?

My humble suggestion is to bait and trap your kid.

Bait her with the device , but get her to sign a contract for life to implement the rules. Failing to which you would dispose of the device without hesitation.

oh ya.. but usually i keep these devices.. they only get to play during school holidays 😉

Do teach your daughter how to control those devices. Specify how much time she's allowed to play and get her to agree to that time.

Such things are very addictive.

Since 12 yo = PSLE, perhaps it's good to set the rules before that. Handheld always gets in the way between parents and teens!! 😄

Think these days most people just stik to their smartphones.

PSP vita ( launched this week)

Besides digital games , have you tried signing your girl up for maybe music / dance / sports ? Despite what we think they like , they might not like what we think they like.

Maybe you could get a kindle for her ? Light and good for books

IMO, iPad is still better, given the larger screen size, is less taxing for the eyes.
