Got Wii?

Lots of families are having fun with their Wii games but have you tried Wii Fit yet? The Nintendo Wii Fit costs $89.99 and seems well worth every penny if you and your family like fun activities that keep you coming back for more.

The Wii Fit game lets you and the kids do everything from yoga to hula-hooping to ski jumping and more. While standing on the balance board and holding the wand, you can perfect your yoga routine or catch hula hoops as they’re tossed to you or take off from sky-high ski jumps.

Fun. Addictive. Challenging. A real workout. The Wii Fit seems like the perfect fit for families. Why not give it a go?

If your kids love the computer, and even if they don’t, send them on their merry way to Whyville. It’s a free online community geared at kids from ages 8 to 15. Once they’re in Whyville they can do lots of fun stuff like:

• Chat and play games
• Run for the Senate
• Write for The Whyville Times
• Earn clams—which teaches them civics, art, science, and economics along the way

Not sure if it’s educationally sound-no worries-the games were created in partnership with some of the best and brightest like NASA and the J. Paul Getty Museum.
