An Xbox Parental Control Solution and So Much More – the Mikko Que
Whether you’re blasting away at aliens, trying to set a new high score or reach a new level, or winning the Super Bowl in Madden football, video games can be a great source of entertainment. Your kids may love their Xbox and spend plenty of free time playing it, but there needs to be a limit. As you may have experienced in your household, overuse of video games or other multimedia and entertainment options can cause tension and arguments when it comes time to do homework or chores, come to dinner, or go to bed. This becomes even more important when considering the amount of study that has been devoted to the issue of video game addiction in children. Luckily, there is a solution for parents looking for Xbox parental control and Xbox 360 parental control.
The Mikko Que goes above and beyond the Xbox parental control options that come along with this video game console. The Que allows parents to manage their kids' screen time on the Xbox, as well as on the Internet, TV, DVD player, and other devices in the home. Here's a brief glimpse of how it works:
-
Simply attach the cables from your Internet connection, TV, video games, and more into the Mikko Que. The connectors where these cables plug into the Que are secured by lock and key, discouraging any efforts to tamper with the system.
-
Using the software setup and any computer you have access to, create the time limits and time ranges for each of your children.
-
Save these schedules onto any USB thumb drives, called Mikko TimeKeys.
-
Your children then insert their own TimeKey into the Que when they wish to use some of their allotted time.
-
If the child is playing the Xbox, for instance, the Que begins the clock on your child's allotted time for that device.
-
Audible and visual warnings will alert the child when their time limit is nearing.
-
Once the child is out of time, the Mikko Que's function as an Xbox parental control device will kick in and block the audio and video signal from the Xbox, preventing any more video game playing.
Best of all, this unprecedented ability to monitor and regulate your kids' screen time extends beyond these Xbox parental control features. The Que offers the exact same functionality with your Internet connection, TV, DVD player, and more, giving you an all-in-one solution for teaching your kids responsible media management skills.
