What Parents Need to Know
About Miniclip
Parents need to know that this is a very popular gaming hub for middle school kids, and the range of games and the ease of play make it extremely addicting. As for the content, the action games (bombing, punching), sports games, shoot 'em ups (none gory), and political cartoons showcase adolescent humor, although some of the games are actually sweet. The site recently added a social networking feature. To join, kids can register with a username, password, email address, and birthdate. The site says it requires kids under 13 to fill out a permission form to sign up, but that never materialized during registration. The social networking features are pretty safe, though -- kids can add friends, play against them in multiplayer challenges, and send them preselected messages only.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about what good amount of time is for playing online games, and draw up some guidelines for balanced use. Parents can ask kids what appeals to them about the site and ask how they feel about the more violent games. Does "cartoon" violence make less of an impression than more realistic media like videos or photos? What message does it send when hurting people or animals scores points in a game? Families can also watch our video about online gaming.

This site is more for the younger kids, with the variety of games more revolved around the child side. However, there are some great puzzle games there like bloxorz and anagrammatic, as well as some interesting shooters like heli attack and commando 2.

cool for all ages but may be hard for littler kids.
yeah so i play Miniclip too, i only gave it "ON for 10+" because some games mite be hard for littler kids. there is no chat feature so you don't have to worry abot cussing, you can send perset messges such as "hi, grate game" or "nice Mini me". there are some iffy things like the clothes that the avatars wear but it's not revealing. the games on miniclip and not that bad most are not violent, but there are a few. it's a cool site, you can win trophies for playing a game and winning a amount a of points.
