The Sewing Mom

We gave our daughter a Wii in June and she is completely hooked on it! My husband, who is not a gamer at all, has even enjoyed playing games with her. We all love the fact that the remotes are wireless and sense your movements. I was never any good at handling those remotes with all the buttons, my reaction times are just too slow.

I know I should be sewing, but instead, my daughter and I spent several hours last night playing Wii. We enjoy several of the Mario games and Big Brain Academy. I have to laugh though, one of my daughter’s favorite games on Big Brain involves taking restaurant orders and remembering the order. If it’s a memory game, it’s not for me!

I know we need to get a few more games, we need a little more variety.

 I just heard of a new game for Wii called Order Up! and I really think it sounds like a winner. The players have to learn how to run a restaurant and do everything from the cooking, to managing the different cooking stations and the assistant chefs. There are different restaurant types to manage, everything from fast food to fine dining.This game is designed specifically for Wii and utilizes the sensor technology that we all find so enjoyable.
