Toddler Games

Toddlers Love to Play!

As a parent or carer, you know it is important to closely monitor how much screen time your toddler enjoys, but you might be surprised by how beneficial a little supervised online fun can be. Far from being lazy parenting, as some may suggest, toddler games can provide vital stimuli that develop hand-eye coordination, cognitive understanding and instil a love of learning.

Research into how long toddlers should spend online is ongoing. The World Health Organization suggests that for children between the ages of two and four years, screen time should be limited to less than one hour per day. The good news is that there are many games that are specially made to entertain, relax and educate toddlers well within that time frame. Video games can be educational and provide learning opportunities about thousands of different themes and subjects. They can engage children, enhance their knowledge and provide fun and entertainment while learning invaluable skills.

Playing Online Games Teaches Children Vital Skills for Life

Playing games is one of the most important things for a toddler’s development. Every opportunity young people can have to express themselves is vital. Playing games online for a sensible amount of time is something that will make any toddler happy. Whether it’s puzzle games, word games or coloring games, we know that toddlers are able to learn as much in their short allocated daily screen time as they do with any other activity. When guided in the right way, using a tablet or a phone can be a vital part of education. It’s not just about learning. Focussing on calming and soothing games and activities will help with the emotional state of your toddler. A world that plays is a happy world!

Toddlers Love Playing Games with Adults

Our toddler games here on GamePix can usually be picked up in seconds! We want to join families together, and introduce young children to a healthy relationship with video games. Whether it’s parents and carers playing with their toddlers, or nurseries and kindergartens looking after young children, we want video games to be a vital part of all of our lives. We find it exciting that through our site toddlers may experience a game like Snakes and Ladders for the first time. It’s a game that has captivated players for generations and is just as playable on a screen as on a board, all they need is someone alongside them to play against. Just keep rolling that die and hope you don’t land on too many snakes!

On-screen instructions make learning any new games easy for young children, and with someone alongside them, being taught how to play a new game can be an important bonding experience.

Playing Games Online Allows You to Express Your Emotions.

Every child works in a different way. For some, talking is the way they express their emotions. For some it might be through play, or by writing. For millions of children around the world a more visual form of learning is best. Information can be easier to absorb when it is presented visually. Playing games is a powerful outlet for self-expression, allowing children (and adults) to communicate ideas and feelings they may not have been able to articulate verbally. Playing games can unlock barriers to communication and allow people to engage in a way that would not be possible otherwise.
