Gaming?

My girls have never really gotten into gaming.

Neither Steve nor myself are really into it, so it's not like it's a huge surprise. 

My kids love all things screens and TVs and all that jazz, so I guess I figured they'd like video games as well.

They've played our Wii a handful of times and they appear to enjoy it. 

Ava is still too little and her coordination isn't quite there so she gets frustrated easily and quickly if she loses. 

Mila does pretty well considering she doesn't have much practice. She really loves it, but it's easy to love something when you win all the time (and ergo, Ava is pissed a lot).

So they came to me the other day and asked to play a video game I had never heard of. Steve mentioned that it was a game our nieces play. It's called "Among Us" - I looked into it a bit and it seemed innocent enough. Honestly, if my nieces are playing and my SIL is cool with it, I'd likely be cool with it too. I may do a little investigating to see if there's anything to be concerned about. 

Anyway.

We got them hooked up so they could play alongside their cousins!

I don't mind if they are playing video games like this. I can't recall the name, but it appeared that they had to make their way out of a room somehow.

Hand-eye coordination skillz people!

FaceTiming and playing with cousins! When they live across the country, we make do with what we can! 

My SIL and her family usually visit a couple times a year. 

Obviously with fucking COVID that stopped the entire world, so we haven't seen them since Christmas 2019. So sad. 

But, thank goodness for technology! Now that the girls are getting more into it, we will make sure they can play with their cousins more frequently.
