Embassy Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I'm not a huge fan, but my son loves it. He requested a Roblox birthday cake and I tried :tongue_smilie: It is supposed to be a figure with the lazy eye face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mom2abcd Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 We have a huge fan here. I think he likes the marketing part of it the best, figuring out how to make his game popular, get hits, stay on the front page, etc. I used to think he was learning from it, but anymore, I think it's mostly a waste of time. Sigh... Love the cake!!!! What did your ds say about it? Did he help make it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sigh... Love the cake!!!! What did your ds say about it? Did he help make it? My ds gave me a critique. He said the logo was right, the legs were the wrong size, and the face wasn't exactly like it should be. LOL. He liked it though. I let them pick their cake they want. I make it and they don't get to see it until it is time to blow out the candle. I hear you about Roblox. It does seem like a waste of time. I guess it is just a little stupid fun. It certainly isn't the place to learn to spell! I have seem my kids learn from it though - although for the time invested I wouldn't call it a learning environment.

Did your ds try Scratch? http://scratch.mit.edu/ It seems more educational and ds made more creative "pre-programming" things. He likes the feedback he gets from Roblox though. I don't think he got as many "words of affirmation" on Scratch. I'd love to hear of other sites like these that are more... "educational."
