Kids and Video Games

My 7 year old son and 5 year old daughter are playing a little Lego Star Wars.

I have reservations about it. I ration my kids' "screen time" carefully, every day, to an absolute maximum of 1 hour.

But I'm listening to them chattering away, talking to each other, laughing when something funny happens, etc.. I don't think I'll be letting them play more than 15-20 minutes. But clearly they aren't going into a video game coma, either. Interesting...

Yup. But we ration their gaming time. And if they get grumpy about it, they get no more video games for a while.
