All Right. Go ahead and laugh. But I want to say that there are some games for kids that delight the heart! Great graphics and fun.
And to those of you who have little folks in your family, come on. Let's hear it. We know you play those games too. I do!
At the top of the pile would be Humongous Games: Putt Putt Saves the Zoo, Freddie Fish, Pajama Sam, and that great collection called Super Duper Arcade.
And best of all Back Yard Soccer. (You get to pick your own team and each team mate has a character that is unique.)
These games are so much fun. (I know. I'm crazy.)
OK. Back to AoE.

hmm.. closest thing to a kids game i've played when i was little was Microsoft Soccer. i loved that game! you could create your own team, with a full roster and everything! make their jersey colors.. oh man, it was great. and extremely good graphics at the time..
My wife has this CD where it is a kid's storybook. You click on all of the items and they all talk or do something. It is very detail oriented and actually pretty funny.
I always have to laugh when I see my "sacred" RoR disk sitting on top of the computer replaced by this CD. I'm not sure what the name of the CD is, but we have laughed at the stuff intended to amuse 6 year olds. LOL!!

When I was a kid we just about had the wheel and electricity ;-)
Classic games from my childhood, before computers;
- Buckaroo - Operation - Mousetrap - Kerplunk
A brainy friend of mine had a version of chess where there were three boards stacked up. As well as the normal moves you could drop down or up to the same square on the next board as an optional move. This variation was very hard to play as you had to checkmate your opponent on all three levels.
