Get Game Smart is a new public service campaign from Microsoft and BestBuy designed to help parents and kids engage in a dialogue about balanced and age-appropriate media use and video gaming.
The site has tons of resources for both parents and kids, including how to set up parental controls, a blog with ideas from experts, parenting videos, how to deal with cyberbullies, a video game screen time tracker and much more.
There's even a family video contest with all sorts of cool tech prizes and a chance to become a Get Game Smart Ambassador. You can learn more about the contest by clicking here.
Microsoft's partners in this public service effort include Boys & Girls Clubs of America, the Entertainment Software Association, Entertainment Software Rating Board, GetNetWise, iSAFE Inc., National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, National Institute on Media and the Family, National Urban League, NetSmartz Workshop, Parents' Choice Foundation, StaySafeOnline.org, Web Wise Kids, What They Play and WiredSafety.org.
