Step 1
When choosing a prefix, you should take into account the age of the child. For toddlers of preschool age (from 2 to 6 years old), simple children's portable consoles such as Gameboy, Dendy, Sega are suitable. Games on these devices are very simple and will surely appeal to children. For schoolchildren 7-14 years old, the PSP, PlayStation Vita and Nintendo Wii consoles are suitable. These consoles support more serious games that preschoolers will not be able to understand. For teenagers from 14 to 18 years old, in addition to all portable devices, stationary consoles such as PS 3 and Xbox 360 are also suitable. High quality games are produced for these consoles, which are allowed to be played by children over 14 years old. Parents should remember that a child (especially children under 14) should not play the console all day, as this can cause headaches, blurred vision and other ailments.

PSP, PlayStation Vita and other portable consoles. These attachments are distinguished by their small size, which allows you to carry them with you in your pocket. All portable consoles usually look like this: on the sides of the control buttons, and in the center is the screen on which the game itself is played. Some of these consoles are sold with preinstalled games, the number of which can vary from 10 to 200. The price of portable consoles is small, from about 1,500 to 3,000 rubles, but Sony consoles are much more expensive, around 10,000 rubles. More expensive devices have the built-in ability to listen to music, watch movies, as well as use an Internet browser and surf the web. The advantages of these devices are compactness and low price. However, games are developed for handheld consoles of lower quality than for stationary consoles.

Hundreds of video games are still being developed for this console, which delight both adults and children. The console is sold at a price of 8 to 15 thousand rubles, the price depends on the set. With Xbox Live, a parent can keep track of what games their child is playing and set certain restrictions. In addition, a special device, kinect, can be connected to the Xbox 360. Kinect is a non-contact touch controller that tracks the player's movements and transfers them into the game. There are a number of video games available for Kinect: Sports, Adventure, and many more.

Sony has also developed an analogue of the Kinect - Move, which will delight both children and adults. PlayStation Move is a game controller that looks like a regular TV remote control.
