This year is an 'off' Christmas year for us regarding being with family. It will be just Ed and Emily and me...which is fine. But...as it is apt to be a somewhat boring time I would like to find something for Emily that absorbs her a bit more than sitting around with her parents. I am not a fam of electronics in general excepting the pc...but...I am wondering if there is some sort of fun electronic hand held game that Em might like. She has an iTouch and small as it is does use the gaming part of it. Katie thinks an iPad would be good but with all the new versions and other pads just not sure. So thought maybe a stand alone game or something might be fun...so...any ideas?  |

Do you have a Wii? There are loads of great games for the Wii that are fun individually or with others. We love the Guitar Hero - Legends of Rock.
There are also lots of tablet PCs that are somewhere between the Touch and the iPad in size and price - not by Apple. I like the 7 inch ones, personally, but I hesitate as you do, not wanting to get the "wrong" one. It is frustrating. My husband is better at picking that sort of thing than I am. If you'd like, I could ask him what he's been looking at these days and put some links on here, but I don't know if you'd want to have to wade through that any more than I would.

Emily has a Nintendo DS, and loves it!! There are various games on it, but she also enjoys taking pictures with it. It entertains her on trips and she keeps it at school with her.
