Why We Rated This on for Ages 9 and Up

The good stuff

  • Educational value:

    Vocabulary, memory, spelling, critical thinking, problem solving, trivia -- it's all here in fun game and puzzle form.

  • Messages:

    Invites kids and adults to take on a new learning challenge daily.
 

What to watch out for

  • Violence:

    Not an issue.

  • Sex:

    Not an issue.

  • Language:

    Not an issue.

  • Consumerism:

    No widespread ads on this site, but there's a sales section for educators who want to buy games for classroom use, and it also has invited organizations to "sponsor" a game.

  • Drinking, drugs, & smoking:

    Not an issue.
 

What Parents Need to Know

About AgameAday

Parents need to know that this game site doesn't have extravagant graphics, videos, or other bells and whistles that some top game sites may have -- but it also doesn't have the shooting, blood, and guts, either. What this award-winning educational site does have are new fun and challenging games and puzzles each day of the month. Kids can sign a "Guest Book," but it requests only first name, email address, state, and age. No other personal information or interaction between players happens.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the importance of kids and adults doing some sort of mind challenge daily. Studies have shown the benefits from memory, critical thinking, and problem solving-type exercises. Why do you think it's a good idea to constantly exercise your mind? What are some things offline that would give you the same challenge? Also, do you mind that all the games are educational? Why or why not?
