I suggest checking out the next two
sites:
For free downloads of games, see
www.games2download.com
. They have family oriented games with excellent features that
require small download files generally under 25 MB. This site
includes farming games that feature food and cooking to teach
children about courage, perservere, sharing, and follow through.
Their set of Tycoon games are perfect for teaching children the
economic principles of business growth, including decision-making
and investing in research. One large file game (134 MB) puts them
into business as roller-coast tycoons, building and designing the
ultimate amusement park! Another travels to Egypt and climbs the
pyramids.
The site,
www.free-download-games.com
, features the children's favorites, Pajama Sam and Nancy Drew, and
Mortimer Beckett, and a game featuring battles of the Civil War.
Both sides have many of the same games,
and both sides offer full featured versions of the games for internet
purchase. Both sites list the additional features that come with the
purchased versions. But as my father, was fond of saying, you
don't miss what you never had! In the meantime, you can have loads
of fun, and many enjoyable hours entertaining yourself and your
families with a virtual endless variety of online, downloadable
games. Enjoy!
