any educational games out there for kids aged 4-8

[EN1GMA]

hello all

are there any educational games on the 360 for the kids like whats on the ds(junior brain trainer)? Looking for games for me kids which might be story based and then they have to work out simple age appropriate puzzles or math games etc.

she's got a ds and she has her daily shot of junior brain trainer just wondering if there is anythign available for the 360. my kids do like reading so story based games where they read and they they have to work out puzzles etc would be really good.

You could try Dr. Kawashima's Body and Brain Exercises. It's for Kinect though, so you might want to watch some videos before investing!

There's a great educational game on 360 called Iredia, which teaches you about the ear and deafness and how it affects people's lives. All quite beautifully told. I get the impression that's not really what you're after, though, you just want maths minigames and stuff?

In that case, XBLA has Brain Challenge and the rather excellent Encleverment Experiment.

I learned more about central/south American geography and the Caribbean islands from Pirates! on the Amiga than any geography lesson.
