Feed me games are very popular these days. I recently introduced a Monster Themed Feed Me game to my 2 year old. He absolutely loved it. It’s a win- win. Your child is playing and learning at the same time. The concept is to reinforce concepts your child knows. I would not use a feed me game to introduce a new concept or lesson.
