Online games can be a fun and interactive way to spend time on a rainy day. All you will need is an internet connection and a computer as most of the games can be played for free.
Games can be played alone, against the computer or with other online players. Girls can also invite their friends over and enjoy most of the games that can be found together. There is the added bonus that most of the activities for girls online are non-violent and have an educational aspect, whether they encourage creativity or teach them the value of money.
This type of game is ideal for girls who enjoy fashion and dress up. Choose accessories and outfits and customise them for online characters or celebrities. Some allow girls to pick which colour eyes their character has, what colour and length of hair and what style they will have. These are great for experimenting with different looks.
Makeover games for girls do not have to focus on clothes or celebrities though. There are house makeover games where girls can create their dream house by choosing furniture and decorations. There are also dollhouse makeover games where girls can design their ideal dollhouse. Girls can give their online rooms a makeover, design a garden filled with pets and flowers or design their own aquarium!
This allows girls to discover the responsibility of looking after a pet without actually investing in a real one. It also allows them to have their own virtual pet that may be too expensive to buy such as a horse. There are various animals including goldfish, rabbits, cats, dogs and even obscure zoo animals like penguins for girls to choose from.
Virtual Pet World is a great website where players can adopt pets, train them, walk them and feed them as well as interact with other players in the real cities portrayed. There are also pet salon games and pet dress up games much like the makeover games available. There are even farmyard games which allow girls to tend to the animals on a virtual farm.
Various games online can allow girls to cook or work in restaurants where they learn to multitask and organise themselves to serve their virtual customers. There are games which allow girls to follow a recipe accurately to cook a successful barbeque or make cakes and brownies. This allows girls to see for themselves what goes into making a meal. Girls can also make their own virtual pizzas and decorate their own cakes. These games are usually for fun and can be easily found by doing a quick search for ‘cooking games for girls’.
There are a lot of fast food restaurant games also which usually involve serving the correct orders to a line of customers in the virtual restaurant. These are great for learning how to be organised and how to multitask. They also train memory by learning the orders.
