Windows 10: Microsoft Kids Games

Hello!


I am looking to download some Microsoft games on my PC that are educational and good for kids. I am trying to find games that have no in-app purchases, and don't require an internet connection once downloaded. Does anyone have any recommendations that they have used with their kids or in a educational type of setting? I would really like to find 4-5 games, and I'm willing to pay for games if they fit the criteria.



Thanks for your help!

:)

 

Microsoft trains kids

Hi,
I am watching lately that Microsoft is training little kids on how to program (on youtube or even on TV from states around the world).
This might be a genius step for some, but sincerely it seems more offending and irritating to me.
It seems to me that Microsoft is using little kids and not every kid,
but the kids of some daddy's who have a lot of money or power at hand.
A true programmer, never does any courses, learns from teachers at school by getting
good grades, hardly shows to public or something to do with 'commercial' ways.
100% of the kids, which is ridiculous, show to public using TV.
What do you think about this?

 

Windows Phone 8 - Kids Corner Backdoor to Internet

• Is there a way to dissable access to Internet Explorer entirely from within Kids Corner?

This way if a game has a link to a webpage or youtube video the kid pressing that button can't get to it.



I will post the suggestion at the feature suggestions page. But to me this sounds more like a flaw in the Kids Corner coding and should be patched.

• Is there another forum I should post to in order to raise additional awareness?

 

Microsoft trains kids

Why is this an issue?

The NBA, NFL, and countless other sports organizations tell children they will be sports stars. They aim directly towards kids and deploy entire market campaigns at children.

Many other companies strategically ploy the child market, who cares that Microsoft is doing it?

While it is ethically debatable it's not mind control. The best thing to come of this should be the parents step up and teach their children. Employing knowledge is much more powerful over marketing strategies by large corporations.
