After finishing their assignments, you can reward your kids with free time to play their favorite games online. While many video games are not suited for young audiences, there are several options that are deemed safe for the children.

From a sandbox game like "Townscaper" to the simplest games such as "Home Base," you can let the kids enjoy their precious time regardless if they're playing a single or multi-player game.

Here are the best kid-friendly games your child can play online.

'Just Dance'

If your kid loves dancing and doing fancy steps and swirls on the dancefloor, he/she might love casual dancing games such as "Just Dance."

This Ubisoft game can be played solo or if your kid wants to challenge someone online, the multiplayer option is always up.

Dancing to the beat of the song does not only yield enjoyment for the children. It also gives them some benefits for their health which is good for the heart and their mind.

Although verbal or visual communication with their co-players is not present in the game, your kids can view their real-time scores online.

'Home Base'

Role-playing games for adults are always time-consuming, but the kid's edition of RPG is not usually that, like in the case of "Home Base" by Scholastic.

If your kid is into reading, chances are they will get easily hooked up with the mechanics of the game through their favorite books.

The game can be played by kids as young as four years old and it's very accessible because you can download it on the web, Android's Google Play, and Apple App Store.

'Townscaper'

There's nothing more interesting than building your own city. As a kid, you can achieve that by exploring the world of "Townscaper," which is a sandbox game featuring Italian buildings situated in the middle of the ocean.

Unlike the other kiddie games which revolve around reading, dancing, and solving puzzles, this particular title will improve your child's ability to design a city.

'Pokemon Playhouse'

Pokemon mainline games are always for kids, but usually we're seeing more adults playing the most popular titles of the franchise such as "Pokemon Black and White 2" and "Pokemon Emerald."

Did you know that there's a specific Pokemon game for kids that is available on Android? "Pokemon Playhouse" is all about grooming your favorite monster which shares the same gameplay with the Japanese game "Tamagotchi."

It's a perfect bonding for your children who are looking for a new exploration to discover. The instructions are already there so it's easy to follow the steps they need to take care of a Pokemon.
