Um, no. Mario Party is not online-capable.

Mario Kart is.

And Wii Sports comes with the system.

My 3 and 6 yr old girls loved it.

They are 5 and 8 and still play. I just got them Wii Sports Resort. They'll be hooked on that for a while.

OP- how about you try to keep your kid as far away from the screen addiction for as long as possible.

the kid will have it's entire life to stare at various screens and monitors, let it play like we used to play as kids.

don't kids play with regular toys anymore....parents can't even drive around without having a lcd in the car to distract the kids so they don't have to "parent"

I urge you to re-visit your post in about 18 months.

Also, in all seriousness, there is a great deal of educational DVDs, etc., out there. Additionally, if I put on The Wiggles, my 3 year old dances, sings, etc. She doesn't dance and sing with her Barbie dolls.

P.S. She LOVES when I play Wii.

my kid will avoid "educational dvd's" for as long as possible.

the only thing my kid will watch is old school Sesame Street, before that ***** Elmo took over.

Thats were parenting comes in

.Just because I let her play it once in a while doesnt mean she will get addicted to it and if she does its my job to fix it.

On a side note she starts her 1st day of school in 2 days

They grow up so fast.
