It is extremely frustrating to watch our children struggle with their studies. We are constantly trying to help them understand concepts and vocabulary, yet there is only so much that we can do. Luckily, free online games are now hitting the education market. With free educational games, it is easy to get your child to not only understand the concepts that they need, but to also embrace the fun that comes along with learning.

The most important thing that an educational computer game should emphasize on is confidence. Children need to feel like they are accomplishing something! Therefore, by complimenting them when they get an answer right, you are motivating them to continue working hard. Reinforcement is key if you want your child to stay on track. After all, how is a child supposed to feel good about their success if it is never recognized or applauded?

Secondly, the educational game should be challenging. It needs to be full of different levels from easy to difficult. Therefore, a student who has already tackled a specific topic can easily move onto the next one. The last thing you want to do is stop the learning process. This will visually show the player that they are not only improving, but also staying right on track. By comprehending harder concepts and situations, it will make them feel good that they are actually learning.

Although the above factors are very important, the educational game should also be visually enticing. For instance, if your child is in preschool, finding a game with a school atmosphere may be great. There are many free online games that incorporate a preschool setting. This may make your child feel more comfortable and allow them to raise their hand in a realistic situation as well. However, fantasy type games may actually be more exciting for students who crave something other than the normal teaching style. There are many educational games which integrate mystical adventures.

If you are trying to make your child a better student overall, perhaps finding a game that is full of skill would help. There are hundreds of free online games on the internet, but a specific one that usually helps children with their logic is backgammon. This popular game has been around for centuries, and has always helped people with problem solving. Although it somewhat has to do with luck, skill is also required. For that reason, finding a game like backgammon may actually improve your childs overall skill.

No matter what educational game you choose, you must find one that will inspire your child to learn. It is essential that a great learning game consists of motivation, skill, and challenging levels. Without these factors, your child will simply just be playing a regular video game. Even though there is nothing wrong with that, the main concern is that you are helping your child with their struggles. Fortunately, no matter how tight your budget is, there will always be free online games. These will provide you with the tools you need for your child to succeed.

Looking for a great bargain Real-Time Strategy game that still plays like new? Then I suggest you check out Big Huge Games' Rise of Nations. In fact, you can get Rise of Nations (RoN) and its expansion pack (Thrones and Patriots) together for a great price now, so I'll be talking about both in this review. RoN combines elements from Turn-Based Strategy games into an excellent RTS engine. Though it is beginning to age, RoN still looks and plays great.

RoN gives great RTS gameplay. Your empire-building is centered around cities. Cities expand your national borders, allow you to build resource-collecting and research buildings, and even Wonders of the World, historical structures that boost your performance. Resources are spread throughout the map, and are not depleted. Rare resources can also be found, which give increased production and added bonuses. Technology is also key, unlocking new units and buildings, and allowing you to progress through eight "ages," from Ancient to Information. Most technology is researched at the library, but nearly every building has some of its own. Combat follows the rock-paper-scissors concept, in that one unit easily defeats another, but is easily destroyed by a third, making well-balanced armies and navies the best choice.

Replayability is unlimited, with different map types that can be randomly generated time and again. There are 24 different "races" available, from British to Nubian to Mongol, each with its own unique units and national bonuses. Quick Battles offer custom fights between you and up to seven computer opponents, on a variety of different map types, with many customizable options. When (or if) you tire of unlimited Quick Battle play, there are five "Conquer the World Campaigns" to choose from. These range from Alexander the Great, Napoleon, the New World (following the colonization of the Americas), the Cold War between the USA and USSR, and "The Entire World," a Risk type map where each nation starts small and must expand its empire. Multiplayer is still highly active, and many player-made scenarios are available. RoN does not bore easily.

Even though it has been out for several years, RoN is still worth getting. It offers unlimited play with a very innovative design. Even graphics wise, RoN still holds up to more modern strategy games. Choose your nation, choose your gametype, and play in your own style. Rise of Nations is a great game that is easily found for a bargain price.
