When you have games that can bridge the gap between you and your kids generation it is a win win. You get to play games that you used to play and teach your kids. Then on the flip side you can learn a new game that your kids love to play. Here are two games that you can teach your kids how to play and one that they can teach you.
Oregon Trail
Do you remember playing Oregon Trail on a PC from back in the day? I remember playing that game with friends at school. Now you can play that game with your family! The Oregon Trail Handheld Game brings back all the old school feels.
Learn about the realities of 19th-century pioneer life on The Oregon Trail – one of the most successful computer games of all time! Choose your profession and your traveling companions, then set out on the trek from Independence, Missouri to Oregon’s Willamette Valley circa 1848. Fill your covered wagon with supplies and prepare to cross rivers and mountain ranges along the way – hunting for food and trading for supplies as you go. Monitor your traveling pace, supplies and the health of your party closely to make sure everyone arrives safely and to avoid the dreaded message “You have died of dysentery.” Ages 8+, SRP $24.99, Available only at Target
