Entertain and educate the most important members of your household with this family-friendly guide to the best Mac software, websites, and iPhone apps for kids. And don’t miss our step-by-step instructions for setting up parental controls on your Mac. Let’s play! When they’re little, kids want to be just like you–pretending to drive the car, borrowing your shoes for dress-up, and yes, pulling up a booster seat to unwind with the family Mac after a hard day in the sandbox. As fun as some Mac staples are regardless of age (Photo Booth, anyone?), your kids deserve some special software just for them–to help them master basic computer skills, stretch their creative imaginations, reinforce educational concepts, and of course, just have a grand old time no matter how young they are. With that in mind, we test-drove 29 Mac and iPhone apps and 12 activity-packed websites just for kids. Some wound up being a little too dumbed down–on the verge of becoming, well, dumb–and our reviews separate the wheat from that chaff for you. Grab the mouse; it’s time to play! Computer Skills KidsMouse KidsMouse teaches basic mouse skills with 18 learning games like ABC Puzzle, Color Ball, and Shape Puzzle. Each is operated using only the mouse or trackpad, and the brightly colored, charmingly illustrated graphics will delight little ones. Some of the games test your child’s sequencing (letters and numbers), shape recognition, and memory, while others just entertain–a bitmap paint program, for example, lets them draw colorful shapes. Really little kids might need prompting from Mom or Dad–ours had fun driving from our lap. We just wished KidsMouse would lock out keyboard input because those keys sure get banged on.

Don’t let the name fool you. Game Week is serious business. Sure, we get to play tons of cool games for hours on end, letting deadlines slip past, drying out our eyes, staying up late, killing the batteries on our iPhones. But still. Serious, serious business. Besides, who ever said serious business couldn’t be fun at the same time? Some jerk, that’s who. So have a little bit of serious fun with the Mac|Life team – we might just let you go first on Mario Kart. Features: – The Mac Users Guide to Cool Things You Can Do With Steam – Okay, you know one of the biggest knocks on Macs is "no one’s making any real cool games for them." And we’ll admit it: some of the biggest and best games are PC only, but all of that is about to change. That’s right, Steam is coming to the Mac platform and it’s bringing all your favorite Valve titles with it.

While at the Unity booth, we ran into a few of the developers at Graveck games. You may be familiar with one of their popular iPhone games, Skee-ball. It hit the #1 paid apps spot during the holidays and is still hanging out in the top paid apps list. What started out as a part-time side project for the developers turned into a surefire hit. Now, the company is gearing up to prepare for the April launch of Apple’s iPad. Jonathan Czeck, the director of technology and co-founder of Graveck, believes that the iPad will really open up the possibilities of mobile gaming. "It would be a great platform for a simple RTS (real-time strategy game)," he says. "This is the first time you can [play] with all ten fingers. Frankly, that sounds fun." In addition to praising the iPad, the Graveck team are also heavy users of Unity, a game development tool used to create 3D video games for Windows, Mac, Wii and the iPhone, as well as browsers that have the Unity web player plugin installed. They also use Macs for all of their game coding, and Czeck cites himself as one of the first users of Unity, back when it was released in 2005. Check below for a video showcasing one of Graveck’s games developed with Unity.
