Arcade games (arcades) are the most popular children's flash games with a fairly simple game plot. Children need to react quickly enough to changing situations. Children play, earn points, and gradually move to new levels. If a child completes the levels within the prescribed period, he will be awarded bonuses in the form of points, weapons and other options for completing them. Also, a young player, if he successfully completes all levels, gets into the gallery of the best participants in the game, where he can enter his own name.

Conclusion
Are computer games useful?
In order to help the child develop, the parent must always be there. So you can’t just turn on your tablet or PC, sit your child in front of it and go about your business for hours. And in case of failure, always criticize the World Wide Web. No, things are a little different. It is important to choose the right games that will help you develop, and you should not forget about parental control so that your child does not accidentally see something forbidden.
Special studies were carried out, from which the following conclusions were made:
- a child who plays computer games becomes more attentive and focused in life, which helps in the future while studying - to listen and remember more information;
- various puzzles, quests and other tasks develop logic and the ability to multitask;
- fine motor skills return to normal thanks to working with the keyboard and manipulator;
- with each new level, the child learns to analyze its complexity, and then this will help to correctly assess his opportunities in life, which, in turn, will also help in self-development;
- to relieve some nervous tension, you can choose games with elements of restrained aggression, but parents should pay more attention to them, and first choose them yourself;
- in a computer game there are no restrictions for fantasies and even for actions; this helps in developing one’s horizons and knowledge of the world around us.
Of course, there are also negative sides to computer games, since everything cannot be so bright and beautiful. Sitting in front of a PC for long periods of time puts a lot of strain on your eyes. And sometimes the child does not want to do anything else. In the game he is forgotten and disconnected from reality, which in turn minimizes contacts with people.
But, all these disadvantages can be easily smoothed out by parents if they monitor their child, and not just turn on the tablet for him, every time just so that he “does not get in the way.” In addition, there are many different computer entertainments where parents can play with their child.
Games for children are divided into categories depending on the topic and focus.
And if we talk about children of preschool or school age, then there is a list of the best computer games for development.
