Fun games for young kids to play
Good afternoon! Here are some fun ideas for games you can enjoy with your 3.5-year-old daughter. Since she loves watching you play City Skylines and Jurassic World Evolution, look for activities that spark her imagination and let you both play together. You might enjoy building blocks, simple puzzles, or interactive storybooks that encourage creativity. These can be great ways to start building a shared experience while she grows. Have fun and enjoy quality time together!
I'm also interested in games that worked well for your kids while you watched.
I recommend Lego games. Nearly every title supports co-op play, allowing her to enjoy the game even if she doesn’t grasp the full story. You can assist her while she has fun exploring. On Steam, you’ll discover many Disney-themed kid-friendly titles—most are simple collections of mini-games based on movies, designed mainly for younger players. If you locate a game centered around her favorite characters or stories, she’ll probably enjoy it. For fighting games, you can adjust settings to reduce violence or choose gentler options. My son liked them because he could simply press buttons and have fun, even though I’m not very skilled at them myself.
Exciting concepts! I'm exploring Lego games right now, and a fighting game concept sounds promising.
I need to check if a family switch is possible. I might catch the Switch 2 when it launches. I’ll also consider letting her play SimCity eventually. Thanks for the suggestions!
I understand it's a budget-friendly version, but Minecraft on Peaceful has really captured my kids' interest. Mostly I’ve been guiding them, but recently my oldest (5 years old at the time) began playing independently on the iPad. We’ve moved from survival to creative play to let him explore, though he seems to have grown weary of just spawning 100 endermen. I think we’ll go back to survival soon. Lego games are also enjoyable, but keep in mind some might be a bit intense for younger kids. I’ve tried Civilization; my son was open to it, and while I haven’t played it yet, I imagine other simulators could be fun too.
