I know nothing about VR. Is it age appropriate for 8-10 year olds?

If so, what are some kid-friendly games to consider?

Are there some decent free ones or mostly have to purchase?

If they're too young for the Quest, they also have a Switch. Doesn't it have a VR Headset attachment? Do you have to buy certain games to use with it?

The problem isn't the games. It's what the other avatars in the game world say around your kid. In one of the basic games, I heard, "I'm going to f$%* kill that guy" in the first 3 minutes of trying it out.

Novelty wore off before they went back to school after the Christmas brake. Same ages as yours back then.

Oh wow, didn’t realize you were in the game with other people. Too ignorant on all this.

Be very careful with VRChat and other social apps, they can be highly NSFW

They can be completely community made maps and avatars. People come up with some fricked up shite in them.
