Come in! Have a margarita or root beer? How about some fresh trout? :)

What I did for summer

Post by Nilk »

Ha! Managed to fit a move in there too, but it required me to have my office in my bedroom rather than living room. This means that I get less time with my daughter, unless I play xbox in the living room.... Soooo I've chosen kinect and my 3y/o, lol.

    Yes.

    By the way, I'm home today with the boys (wife saw a concert last night with her mom in Seattle), and now that I see someone else does the Kinect thing with their toddler/preschooler, how does it go for you guys?

    We've been thinking of a Wii, but only when the oldest is a bit older (5 or so). A xbox with kinect isn't something we've thought about yet.

    My oldest son can literally bounce off the walls if we let him get too worked up too. Would kinect track that? (hehe. it's true though.)

    Dance central picks her up ok. Ours is over the tv, so set up took some calibration, but she has fun with it.

    We do the Wii fit with our 3 year old. He's taken a little bit to get some of the balance games and the cardio stuff, but he's really taken to it, and asks to play every day now.

    I was at Target on Saturday and saw a Wii Fit type game especially for kids. It has Nickelodeon characters and stuff in it, looks pretty cool. Was on sale for $18. I'd give it a look Matt.

    **EDIT**
    Here is the Gamestop link to the game:
