Global Multi-format Gaming Platform Reveals How Gaming Builds Family Bonds

Mar 17, 2017

MyRealGames, a global leader in the online, PC and mobile gaming sector, is helping families view gaming of all kinds in a different light, explaining how it can build family bonds rather than act as a form of isolated entertainment. When enjoying a fast-paced gaming session, parents can work together with their children, testing problem solving skills and strengthening the family unit when levels are completed successfully.

The gaming platform isn’t the first to sing praises for gaming, with tech fanatic-turned father blogger, Geek Dad, also highlighting the benefits that a group gaming session can bring in his recent post ‘Why I Love Mobile Gaming with My Toddler’. After playing an interactive puzzling-solving mobile app, he notes the enjoyment the entire family gets from the activity, also arguing against the screen time limit for youngsters, set by the American Academy of Pediatrics, of one hour a day.

It is common for parents to view gaming as a negative activity, or as a ‘one-off’ treat to rewards children with after good behavior. However, by taking part in gaming rather than removing themselves from it entirely, MyRealGames believes that playing games could form an integral role in nurturing strong family relationships.

Nikolai Veselov from MyRealGames.com commented, “There are often arguments between children and parents over the amount of time they spend gaming – and this is understandable if the child consistently does it as a solo activity, favoring staying in their room playing on their PC or smartphone over family conversation. However, by taking a new approach to gaming, it could be used as a tool for connection.

“On MyRealGames there is a diverse selection of titles, with many modes of gameplay and subjects that children may not have come across before. As a parent, choosing a game that is new to your child and offering to help them learn it together encourages teamwork, and can be fun for all the family!”
