In today's digital age, children are spending countless hours immersed in video games. As a parent, it can be tough to know if the games they're playing are the right fit. The poster from psych child (below) has information to support you in knowing if the game is suitable for your child. 

Below are some further tips to help you navigate this gaming landscape:

• Educate Yourself: Utilise resources like Common Sense Media to learn about the content and age appropriateness of various games.
• Co-Play: Play games with your child to understand the gameplay mechanics, social interactions, and potential challenges they may face.
• Explore Parental Controls: Many games offer robust parental controls that can limit playtime, filter content, and manage online interactions.
• Supervise Play: Encourage your child to play in shared spaces rather than isolating themselves in their rooms.
