The Top Wii Games For Kids

One of the great things about the Nintendo Wii is the great range of games. There really is something for everyone. Serious gamers and those who are new to Nintendo have all found something that they like to play. There is also a great range of Wii games for kids.

There are plenty of fantastic games around for kids but some just stand out a little more than others. Good kid's games are easy to learn but difficult to master. They encourage coordination and activity. If you have recently got a Wii you can’t miss some of these classics.

1. Animal Crossing: City Folk

This is a great social game for children. The game brings the player into a virtual village populated with human-like animals. Children will have a great time playing through days where their characters have to complete certain tasks and attend to certain routines. This game, aside from being highly entertaining, can teach children the basic social skills and cooperation.Animal Crossing is one of the best girls wii games too!


2. De Blob

Help children learn colors the fun way by introducing them to De Blob, a fiery ball of color and energy.  The game revolves around the colorful hero’s quest to put some color into the dull Chroma City. The game features smart animated sceneries all in generous and abundant color. 

3. Super Smash Brothers Brawl

Even children need some kind of stress release and what better way to do so than using their favorite Nintendo characters like Link from the legend of Zelda and Mario in a multiplayer beat-em up party. Although the game requires beating characters silly to win, the whole game is done in humorous cartoon visuals that really are fun for children.

4. Guitar Hero III

This is perhaps one of the most addictive and popular of all music games on the market, and by far, one of the best Wii guitar games.

Of course Nintendo will never come out with a console that does not feature their flagship game character Mario. Mario is definitely a force to be reckoned with in this Nintendo Wii game. The task is similar to previous Mario games: Help Mario through various worlds and stages in his quest to save Princess Toadstool and rid the land of the evil Bowser. Super Mario Galaxy brings a new flavor to the franchise with the Wii’s revolutionary Wii remote and motion control style gaming. A definite must for those looking for a wholesome adventure.

7. High School Musical Sing It

High School Musical is probably the most popular Disney franchise to date. The appeal the movies have on children is undeniable and with the High School Musical Sing it bundle for the Wii, kids can have a grand time re-enacting scenes or simply singing to the shows popular hits. The game relies heavily on measuring tone, pitch and tempo which make the Wii console a very impressive and efficient karaoke machine. The music will surely capture your kid’s imagination and the visuals aren’t bad either.One of kid's favorite Wii singing games!

8. Mario Party 8

9. Mario Kart Wii

The Lego games - Lego Batman and Lego Star Wars - are some of the best Wii games for kids available. My kids have those two and play nothing else - really good fun, and they're forced to work together as well to complete them ;-)
