Our daughter is only a year old and enjoys sitting on her dads knee and playing computer games with him (and has been doing it since about 6 months of age). It isnt everyday or for long periods of time but it is a nice treat for her when she does get to do it. I think its everything in bablance - like Sara says if they are still playing in other (more active) ways then its fine. It can actually be a good tool for improving hand-eye coordination and obseravtion skills (my fiance actually started playing computer games because the doctors told him to to help develop his hand-eye coordination)

As long as it is not all day and he is still going outside to run and play I think its okay!
