Being friendly is a gift. Not everybody has that. Most often, when you get friendly with people, you get reciprocated. How do the people you get friendly with benefit from that? I get to help, or at lest opt to help them, they feel free around you and talk themselves out, and they also feel happy when they are welcome and there is someone to listen to them.

We all value kind and polite gestures but to various degrees. To some, it is a fortune for them to be treated kindly and they really get to show some appreciation. To some, it is a fortune but they don’;t care about you. They taken it for granted and make it clear to you, directly or indirectly that it is their right to be treated fairly and you have no choice but submit to it.

Surprisingly, some people don’t even care whether they are treated kindly or not. They don’t care whether they are helped or not. They have very short visions and don’t care about what long term endeavors holds for them.

I consider refusal to learn as a very bad habit. Why would someone not care whether he/she knows something or not? Why would someone not go an extra mile to learn something. At times, going an extra mile simply means asking for help, or granti9ng someone the permission to help, or even just being polite to your “teacher”. At our cybercafe (Super Fast Internet), you meet all sorts of people. The most annoying of them are those who do not want to learn. People come to check their email boxes and don’t even know how to do so. When you opt to help, they just get rude at you and at times get angry and leave simply because you want to teach them so that in future they can do it on their own.

Well, I really feel bad when people are still living in the dark in this computer age. One should at least learn how to check emails and I don’t want to encourage computer illiteracy around me.

The bottom line is I must always force them to learn.

It is easy, very easy for an adult to answer “Games are meant both for Education and Entertainment”, but that same adult might not be able to pinpoint even 1 thing he/she has been learning from American Conquest or Need 4 Speed. Maybe one disturbing point is that, just as in the case of movies, it is a little bit difficult to draw that demarcating line between learning and leisure.

Children play games with more curiosity at the back of their minds than adults do. They observe the game keenly and see what can make them move ahead of their opponents. Children are very fond of trying to apply what they learn from game to real life situation – that’s where the educational part of it comes into play.

Every game, being played with positive will goes a long way in feeding the body, mind and spirit. Since most of us spend most of our time in front of our PC, developers have taken advantage of that to produce games that are not just like our regular games, but geared towards education. Most of those educational PC games are targeted at kids.

Educational PC Games engage children into interactive computer based studies and training. During such interesting interactive training sessions, the child gains or improves ob very vital skills like reading, listening, writing, observing, questioning, etc…

Another class of educational games parents and educators can explore involves building fundamental math concepts. Children are given insights into basic addition and subtraction, as well as basic geometry, especially with regards to shapes and their names. As children age and their skills and understanding broaden, these educational games can provide an exciting means of learning about multiplication, division, time, and more.

While academics alone are an important element of every child’s educational experience, there are other concepts that are relevant to a child’s emotional and mental development. Emotional intellect is important to understanding a child’s emotional response to people and situations. The key concepts to be aware of are sharing, honesty, and compassion. Some exceptional software programs and games help reinforced these traits.

There are a number of benefits associated with educational software programs and games. Children can learn about basic academic concepts, and progress to more advanced concepts as they develop. Furthermore, children can learn the ramifications of sharing, team work, and responsibility. If you want to enhance the academic and emotional intellect of your child, kids educational software games can be very rewarding.
