Health care patients have an aid in learning how to take care of ones self. In “Video Games Aim to Hook Children on Better Health” , by Christopher Lee, we see the full potential for video games. The ability to help decrease urgent care visits by playing a cancer fighting agent is an awesome breakthrough. I have never had a major illness other than “Mono” that left me in the hospital for one week during my senior year Spring Break. But I can imagine any inspiration of hope is needed in a time of crisis.

I watched the trailer for the game developed by HopeLab, a not-for-profit video game developer/researcher, then checked out their site. I like this company and where they are going. They have a new contest, “Ruckus Nation” , where you can receive $75,000 for the winning idea for getting kids moving around. My idea is to put kids to work as soon as they talk back. Dad’s working, mom’s working, put little Jimmy to work.
