It Is Fun to Play WOW with a Baby

When playing wow, you have already a baby to care for. How to Solve this? It is funny. Here are some tips for wow gamers to read as a guide.

1. No guilt to be had here.
There's not an iota of guilt to be had. The baby's getting some awesome Daddy-baby bonding time and you are getting to relax with a favorite game. It's the best of both worlds. And, oh yeah, since I'm not doing much but questing around, it's not like there's anything distracting you from paying attention to your child.

2. It's fun to read quest text to baby
Try to reading all the quest text to your baby. Sound silly? But interaction is good, reading is good, and language skills are good.
And it's fun. I'm paying real attention to quest text for the first time in a while and you know your baby likes the sound of your voice. It's the best of both worlds, especially since there's nothing terribly stressful about good, old-fashioned wow power levelling.

3. Don't do anything too deep
Don't go main tanking a 25-man heroic dungeon with 24 impatient raiders if you've got a baby on your chest. The best case scenario will be a merry yellow stain on your chest. The worst case scenario will be lots of tears and recriminations, to say nothing of the baby's reaction.

A newborn sleeps for huge stretches of time, that's true. But it's not like baby has an alarm clock strapped to its belly. On average, my baby's getting an hour or two of sleep at a time, but there's plenty of 15-minute naps and 4-hour marathons before you hit that average with wow power leveling.

4. Baby gets hot
Letting the baby sleep on your chest while you play WoW is absolutely adorable. It's awesome bonding time, makes you feel like a parental rock star, is generally great for relaxation.

It's also like wearing a hot water bottle on your chest. In the very least, wear deodorant. But if you have the option, crank down the A/C a few notches. By the time you're done a rousing trip through LFR, you'll end up with a sweat-soaked T-shirt.

5. If it works you up, it's probably not a good idea.
You know that heart-pounding, mouth-watering thrill you get when you're in PvP with wow mop power leveling? How your breath comes quicker, your pulse races, and you're like "Must kill all the things!" The way you should "Yes!" when you get a kill? Yeah, baby doesn't like that.

Baby picks up on your stress and will get equally stressed out herself. So try to stick to the chill stuff.
