Clues That Your Toddlers Play too Many Video Games

You go outside to check on the twins playing and one runs up and exclaims:   “Mommy, we’re playing two players!”

Everything is a “level.”

  • We go to pick up big brother from school:  “this is the car level”
  • Eating lunch:  “this is the lunch level”
  • Running around signing the Darth Vader theme music…you guessed it…”we’re playing the Darth Vader level!”

“Mommy, can we play the Wii?”
no
“Mommy, can I play Anthony’s DSi?”
no
“Mommy, can we play the Playstation?”
NO!
Mommy says:  “Why don’t you go outside and play two players?”

We are playing the “car level” when I am asked repeatedly, “when we get home can we play the Wii?”
over, and over, and over

I’ve created little monsters.  I should change my blog to mommy23monsters.

    My son asks if we can “pause” dinner so he can run to the bathroom! He also likes to pretend he is Luigi and I am the princess. It’s so funny when we are with other people and he calls me princess and they think that he calls me princess instead of mommy.

      LOL! Mine do that, too! I can’t believe I forgot to mention that. I am Princess Leah or Princess Amadala depending on if my hair is in a bun or not. LOL

      I’m actually surprised that we don’t ‘pause’ dinner..totally something they would say. haha

    Funny! I have been wanting a Wii, but afraid it might take up too much of my precious online time :)

    My husband would say, “What is the problem here? I was raised BY video games and T.V. and look how I turned out.” (We have had this discussion before, can you tell?)
