What Parents Need to Know
About Backyard Basketball 2007
Parents need to know that this game is a great way to introduce kids to playing sports in video games. The controls are particularly easy, making it a good fit for children ages 6 to 10. As kids select their team to manage, they can choose kid versions of pro athletes including Paul Pierce, Shaquille O'Neal, Allen Iverson, Tracy McGrady, and Yao Ming.
