My son is 6. He is in a very yeshivish school. We got into the habit of him watching movies bec I needed him occupied. There were lots of family stressors and I was having a hard time coping. I felt this was better for everyone's mental health. Things calmed down a lot and I want to stop but my son will be really mad for probably a half a year especially if I don't have something to offer instead. So I was wondering what type of electronic game can I buy him that does not need Internet connection and does not have violence. I need something that should he repeat to anyone at school that he has this game it won't disturb them. If you get my gist.

Sorry ladies but he will not trade in his videos for a game like connect 4. I need something very exciting.

You could get an old Nintendo Gameboy and buy a few cartridges for it that you approve of - Tetris, Super Mario, etc. Check Ebay for pricing and options.
