I don't really know who we bought our Wii console for ... all the while I thought it's for our son, but then again it turned out to be just as addictive for grown ups as myself and my husband (playing tennis, golf, baseball, car races, etc) - and that frustrates our 6-year old son. So, we ended up buying extra controls so that we could play them together as a family, to the delight of Alexander (now his friends comes over for a game or two and they're in their own world of Wii).
We find the Big Brain Academy for Wii to be very child friendly and at the same time really stimulating for a very curious 6 year old. My son tends to challenge himself all the more to get better scores and he really strived to get a "gold medal" for each of the activities. This program trains one to count, visualise, identify, analyse and memorise according to the presented logic of interests to really exercise your brain.
The Mii section is particularly interesting for a child as they can create their own face characters to "go to school" in the make believe world of Wii Academy - I'd say, never underestimate the creativity of a child!
For our family, this console is truly an investment - not only for the joy and fun time we get together as a family, but also its help in stimulating the "big brain" inside our little Alexander.
