Educational computer games

Children are interested not only in games where they have to run, shoot and kill virtual characters, but also in games which are both interesting and educational. It is possible to motivate children by giving them games they can solve by themselves, at the same time learning something from the STEM.

We also got the chance to try and test out some games which are free on the net. In these games you have to do a lot of thinking to solve the problems, it is not just "run ahead!".

 

Here are the links to the games we tried. There are many more.....
