Yes we have games to share.
My son 5 now was 4 when he started to type into google, to find games.
I’d showed me the Boohbah site, as well he had sat on my lap while I looked different things up with Goodle. Then that was that, once he knew all you had to do was type into google. He wanted to know how to spell all sorts of his favourite shows. We would call out the letters and he’d type them in.
Wasn’t long before he was typing hem in with us running to the computer to turn it off. Like when he typed in his favourite Scooby-doo show “shaggy and Scooby get a clue” umm yes you can imagine not good. We brought “net nanny” but I couldn’t’ get onto many of my sites. So we just monitor and he knows he has to ask before he Googles, Now

I agree that monitored and measured time on the computer is fine fro children over 2. My little ones like these at the moment:
