I prefer frog style myself. Also doubles as a way of entertainment for small children

I've tried entertaining children, but my stories usually have too much blood and death in them for anyone but little boys.
And little boys annoy the hell out of me. XD

Yeah, I don't know why so many parents dislike video games and such, I mean, it gives the kids something to do in their rooms that doesn't damage anything or hurt anyone...
Pretty perfect, if you ask me...

I don't game with kids (that I know of), unless they're playing GTA5, I guess...
Don't really have any little ones in my life much. I'm okay with it, meh...

 I don't play video games much, well who would when all I have is just 3 game CDs for my wii and two cards for my DS... >_<
Playing with kids is sometimes frustrating, especially when they are scared of losing  There's one baby brother I have who always plays video games yet would not play a single multi player game. Poor kid.
But too much video games can bring problems which I guess is the main reason why parents don't like it very much. We're allowed to play once a week (  ) though it's been months since I've played, except for LaTale on my PC, that is.

Sounds a little like Harvest Moon or the similar one where you're the mayor of the town...They call them sandbox games.
And I had fun when I babysat kids. The perfect formula is to just run 'em dry, or pump them full of sugar and run 'em until they can't anymore. We ran around the yards, around the house, just screaming and sliding on the floors or playing with Barbies for the hours the parents were out. And as soon as someone got hurt, cranky, or started to slow down a little bit, I would pop in a movie and they'd fall asleep almost instantly. It's perfect.

This is where experience and tactical prowess comes in hand!
You have to invent a game where they can do most of the movement or get most excited to blow off all that energy.

Oh, just giving them permission to run in circles is generally enough, but if you can get them enthused about it, it's even better.
It can be sort of fun helping with kids, but I don't handle it well when they start fussing or being mean or cranky.
I'm just not very good at turning it all around, I guess. It's like herding cats.
