[Hidden-tech] educational & fun/cool Kids computer game recommendations

[Tom Adams- Reelife Productions]

anyone have any good recommendations for educational kid computer  
games - free or for sale online/downloadable. I'm all for my kids (10  
& 7) getting comfortable with computers by playing games and stuff but  
I don't want them to be 'wasting' their time on the zillion wastoid  
games that are out there. interested in hearing your suggestions.   
thanks.
