3 1/2 year old using a mouse

cc74

Does any one know any good web site games that will help my 3 year old learn to use a mouse. We've looked on cbeebies and there isn't anything i could find that doesn't have time restrictions.

Thanks.
(wasn't sure if this was techie stuff or family, opted for family, hope that's right!)

Thanks for this, I'm interested too. Also in where to get a cheap mouse suitable for a toddler? (I hope you don't mind me butting in but it seemed like a good place...)

Gingham Ribbon - you could check out compact mice available for use with laptops. They are much smaller than usual, but do seem a bit less robust!

I'd have another look at cbeebies - there is quite a lot of stuff that doesn't have time restrictions - there are a number of jigsaw games which use the mouse - http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/funandgames/lrt_jigsaw.shtml

fairy footprints from Barnaby Bear http://www.bbc.co.uk/cbeebies/funandgames/fairyfootprints.shtml

Come outside game, Big cook little cook, Bits and Bobs etc. I think cbeebies is the most comprehensive pre school site and it uses charactesr they know.

My son has a Tumbletots cd game - you may pick one up on ebay otherwise quite expensive. Asda often have kids CR roms on offer and the pound shop sometimes too - I got a Noddy CD ROM game from there.

we go for cbeebies website with our 3 1/2 yr old.

We got a very cheap optical mouse from our local tesco extra store (even cheaper if you pay with coupons) we opted for an optical mouse to avoid him having to cope with wires. Seems to have does the trick and it also doesn't matter if he picks it up when he's not concentrating as there's no wires.

I use a little laptop mouse on the laptop and am so impressed by it I am going to get one for the pc too. Noticed one in Asda today for about £8 odd
