My kids love video games as most do. It seems like my sons hands are starting to merge with his DS. I think adults are going to evolve with coffee cup shaped hands and kids with game systems attached.
I made this for the CAARDVARKS CHALLENGE to color a stamped image and CUTE CARD THURSDAY challenge to make a terrible teen card. I know the image is a little cutesy for a teen but I let both my 9YO and 15YO play with it. They both loved pushing the buttons (they are all popped up with dimensionals) to the point where I had to take it off of them before the ruined it.
I used THIS pic from the web (and a consultation with my kids) to make a template for the game controller. It was made with a little pocket in the top so that a small card would fit inside. I put pop dots on the image just above the legs so it made a ledge to stop the card from falling inside. I am going to tuck a gift card inside for my nephew who has a birthday in February. First time ever I have a card made for him ahead of time. I am usually scrambling.
