Nintendo DS Lite for Grandma?
By Neena on Nov 16, 2007 in Children of All Ages, Just for Moms, Parenting Tips, Technology
What are you getting grandma for the holidays?
Have you consdered a Nintendo DS Lite? What - grandma playing video games? You bet.
Actually, my mom is a big Sudoku and puzzle fan. She recently picked up her own Nintendo DS Liteand Brain Age 2
(which is a game that contains tons of Sudoku puzzles and other mind challenging activities).
And the rest as they say, is history.
Now when I when issue the parenting command, “Enough electronic time, turn it off!” I also have to add, “That includes you, grandma!”

Neena, SO funny — guess what I got for my 40th birthday?! I am firmly convinced it helped loosen up my brain for the GRE, and I still enjoy Brain Age 2, when I’m waiting in carpool line or anywhere. One of our friends got his wife (age 45) the Brain Age 2 DS Lite for her birthday, too, because my hubby told him how much I liked mine. My 2nd favorite game is Big Brain Academy, for a little variety!!

I just purchased the DS Lite (age 33) because my mom purchased one and raved about it. I play more games than just Brain Age 2, but BA2 is still one of my favorites.

How cute. We got my dad one for Christmas last year. I have one and Love it but I tend to lean more toward the Mario games
