Now if only I can get the oldest to remain interested in Star Citizen. I mean like a true testie she likes going into space and visiting planets especially when the landing leads to huge fireballs. But her favorite is still Ark and making the dinos her friends by clubbing them over the head.

Huge congratulations! 🙂

Thats a great plan getting the little'uns into the game, I've not been able to get much play time since my first arrived but if I can convince them to play too it may be as little as 4 years! 🙂

Have you any other tips for getting play time wile having children?

(Note to Baby 'BobFace: When you read this in your teens, no I wasn't trying to avoid you of course you were and are my priority over a computer game 🙂 )


EDIT - Oh, wow! The Smilies change size! 🙂 🙂 🙂🙂🙂 Good work, @SeungRyul

What!! Evil wizardry, if I now could change the size of beers 🍻

[EDIT] first attempt failed, maybe I also should include beers between SIZE
[EDIT] second attempt, not very impressive...🍻 but there definitely is a difference. That is better 🍻

Sacrifice more sleep time lol. We got lucky with ours cos she slept through the night after like 6 weeks, so the wife could run some raids in wow and I could put in some flight time before bed. Sometimes we "skipped" her first sleep cycle at night and just played something before her next feeding time.
Also if you do bottle feeding during the night, and you have a maternity pillow or something to lay the kid on, your other hand is free to operate the flight controls. Although the light from the monitor might be too much. Ymmv.
Ours was a slow eater, so I watched so much Netflix like this during the first few weeks, I almost wish we were still on that schedule lol Then I had to stop cos she started noticing the screen...

This is really the only advice I have. Wife and kids eat into vast amounts of playtime and so I just carve out time in the early morning hours. As they get older I am sure I'll get back more time but for now, it's just when they are sleeping.
