4.10.06 WS - Video Games Come Alive

Dance Dance Revolution
What it is: A soft plastic mat you plug into a Nintendo GameCube. You dance on the mat prompted by what's going on onscreen.
Why it's cool: Kids love to dance, and these games give them a fun excuse to move, squirm, and squiggle. Challenges include dancing in sync with a song (instructional steps flash onscreen) and head-to-head (toe-to-toe) dance-offs against other characters. For kids 5 and up, Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix is best; kids 10 and up will prefer the music-video feel of other titles. A great way to bust a move and break a sweat!

My Brown Baby: "My girls' toys reflect the truly diverse world they live in, where the kids who fill their school rooms and playgroups speak different languages and come from different countries and backgrounds and income levels and aren't necessarily a bunch of frilly little tea-toting girls."
