Is It Any Good?

These preschool games are lightly educational, but are sometimes missing basic supports for young kids. With 30 games (21 games with the free version), Kid E Cats. Educational has a decent variety of activities. And with bright colors and cute animated cats, preschoolers are likely to find most of them fun and appealing. Many games involve some logical reasoning or puzzle solving. But many also don't include instructions for what kids are supposed to do, or are confusing once kids start playing. This may be fine for some kids, but will frustrate others. Though the games will probably entertain kids, they aren't particularly creative or inspiring. Most are average versions of standard preschool fare. It's also important to note that the free version is too riddled with intrusive ads to be appropriate for young kids.

Talk to Your Kids About ...

  • Families can talk about which games in Kid E Cats. Educationa‪l your kids like best. Do the lightly educational games feel different than the games that are just for fun? Are there times when you feel like playing one kind versus the other?

  • Provide lots of opportunities for learning and creativity, on screen and off. Books, blocks, stuffed animals, simple puzzles, and dress-up clothes are all great toys to offer a preschooler.

  • What are your family's expectations around screen time? How much is OK? When is it OK to use devices, and when are devices off-limits?
