翻译 Translation
小孩子一般都对游戏很感兴趣，并且渴望父母与自己一起玩儿游戏。不过，陪孩子玩儿也得讲技巧，否则，很难达到理想的效果。
Children are generally very interested in games and long for their parents to play games with them. However, playing with children also requires skill; otherwise, it is hard to achieve the ideal effect.
第一，表达对游戏的兴趣。父母在陪孩子玩儿游戏时，要和孩子一样投入、专心，短时间完整的注意力投入，比长时间的敷衍来得更有力量。
First, express interest in the game. When parents play games with their children, they should be as engaged and focused as the children. A short period of complete attention is more powerful than a long period of perfunctory attention.
