Fun computer games?

[ann_of_loxley]

I want to buy a new computer game for my son - So looking for a CD ROM (not an online game). It will be kinda a 'gift' from us - something he can do whilst I am in labour! hehe...Currently on Amazon making my order!

The problem is... a lot of the ones he likes (like thomas, bob the builder, etc) are all 3+...and they are WAY too easy for him! (as he already has a handful of these)...

So I wouldn't mind one that would give him a bit more of a challenge.


Any suggestions?

I'd just go online to like download.com and see what free games are available for kids his age. We use Ubuntu linux and I recently introduced DS to the computer - I downloaded gcompris & childsplay for him and he seems to enjoy them. I'm not sure if there available for windows, but it'd be worth a try.
