Nintendo Wii - Guitar Hero III — 

Oh, to be the ignored middle child!  Our son complained about this mightily, and it was true he did get overlooked from time to time.  OK, pretty consistently.  So when Wii with Guitar Hero 3 Legends of Rock went on sale at WalMart, I said, "What the hey, let's get it for his birthday.  It's all he wants."  And my sweet prince agreed.  The first clue I had that this was a winner was when he blew by me with the package yelling, "Sweet mother of God!  It's a Wii!"  He was able to set it up with just a bit of adult help and has been playing it ever since.  I was a bit worried about turning him into a  couch potato, but have discovered that he and his sister stand up to play and either dance or at least rock with the beat.  To my adult eyes the graphics are gross, but, oh the sweet memories the songs evoke to the ears!  And now he wants to learn to play a real accoustic guitar, so that's an activity we can share.  I'll admit to taking a turn with the Wii guitar myself, but just one.  It was fun; I understand why kids love it.  I am so pleased with this that I may buy Wii Fit this year.
