A computer is like a magic box that can do a lot of things when we ask it to. We can use it to talk to our friends, watch videos, learn new things, and even play games! Video games are like a make-believe adventure that we can explore and control using a special device called a joystick, controller, or keyboard.
When we play games on the computer, we see a picture on the screen that shows us what's happening in the game world. We can make our character move, jump, and talk using buttons or keys on the controller or keyboard. We can also make the game do what we want by clicking on things with a mouse or tapping on a touchscreen.
Some games are about racing, where we get to drive cars and see who wins the race. Other games are about fighting, where we get to punch, kick, and dodge our opponents. There are also games about puzzles, where we have to figure out how to get from one side of the room to the other without getting caught.
We can play games by ourselves, or with friends and family. Sometimes we can even play with people from all over the world using the internet. The computer and video games can be lots of fun, and they help us learn new things too!
