Dont know if this is the right topic, but Do you have either - sorry - dont know what the bike thing is called, I think its fisher price. Would you recommend them for an active 3 yr old boy? Pros and cons if poss. Thanks.

my ds 2.7 has v smile console going at good price on e bay at moment

pros for my ds its helping with his speech and they do teach colours numbers alphabet and keeps them occupied

would say do limit time or they want to play on them all the time do normal structured play then for quiet time allow 30 mins

no cons to it other wise as long as time is structured they do help al;ot my ds has learnt alot from playing his speech wise and other things

i wouldnt get my ds the bike as he can play in garden in his if he wants too i find that one an expensive gimmick would much rather just take ds out on his

v smile i find good for quiet time you can have 5 mins peace lol

Would you think the bike is a good idea when the weather is bad?

[MrsGuitar]

oh sorry yes sounds like i'm sellimg one but i just meant they are going for good price just purchased a second console for my friends little boy with 3 games for 15 pounds and also just got my ds v smile art that plugs into console and they can draw and paint and it shows on tv screen

just put in v tech smile into e bay have noticed last week they have been selling so much cheaper

i still wouldnt get my ds bike even on rainy day as i would rather he danced or jumoped about and done other things instead of being stuck infront of screen

i do like ti limit his time although some days depending on how i'm feeling he may get a relaxed day
