Playing video games is an engaging family activity
Playing video games has a noticeable effect on the
brain and behavior.
The visual-motor areas of his brain light up. Blood flows
away from his gut, kidneys, liver, and bladder and toward
his limbs and heart - he's ready to fight or escape! The
reward pathways in his brain also light up and are
reinforced by the flood of dopamine. He is so absorbed in
the game, he doesn't notice when his little sister, Arianna,
comes over until she puts her chubby hand on the screen,
trying to get his attention.
