Your baby or toddler is between 9 months and 3 years old?
Then he's ready to start banging on the keyboard with these free online computer games for babies and toddlers!
These children's games work on Windows, Mac and Linux.
Things will happen. The kiddies on the screen will talk to him.
He might point at them and talk back with a few "Ooh, oohs".
If he sees you moving the mouse, then he'll want to do that too.
Show him how to click the button.
Cuddle him in your arms while he is in front of these games.
Share these games with him the way you would share a picture book
- a talking, moving, reacting picture book!
But do try to discourage him from banging the mouse, or from putting it in his mouth!
We recommend that you maximize the browser window,
to minimize the chances of him clicking somewhere other than in the game.

...parenting tip of the moment
I used to think that patting babies on the back was simply to "burp" them: to coax little gas bubbles out of their tiny digestive systems. But, oh, it is so much more.
First and foremost, it is primarily a tool of Distraction. Anytime you see them on the brink of waking up or crying...if you pat them just right, they'll stop and turn to you, slightly confused...They spend the next few moments trying to isolate the patting.
"Where's that rattling coming from?...Anybody else feel a shaking? Like a thump, thump, thump, thump?...Nobody? Okay, maybe it's just me...as I was about to say...Waaahhh..." And then they go ahead and cry anyway. But for a second there, you feel very clever. You momentarily outwitted an infant.

"Babyhood" by Paul Reiser of television's "Mad About You", pages 151-152

Small children should be supervised by a caregiver when at a computer,
to ensure no accidents occur that could hurt the child and that no equipment gets broken.
