Educational Mario games

[Kane99]

Have you guys ever played any of the educational Mario games? I am only aware of Mario Is Missing, and I know there was another one, but I'm drawing a blank. Do you think these games are worth adding to my collection? Are they cheap enough?

Was there any other educational games from Nintendo?

There are tons of educational games on Nintendo. Mario's Time Machine is a good one.

This Wikipedia list can show you a few more, and possibly point you in a direction to find more educational games aside from just Mario games.

I didn't know there were any Mario games that were considered "educational".  I just enjoyed playing them regardless if they're educational or not.

When I was a kid I didn't know Mario Is Missing was educational. I just enjoyed playing it. When I play it now, I realize just how educational it is. It would be a dam good one for kids to play. It's a hell of a lot of fun, and they can learn at the same time. Education gives knowledge, which is the single most valuable thing a person can possess. Knowledge is priceless.

Yea, I know that.

A lot of non Mario games are worth playing too. I think cartoon network kind of improved up on the title of the education games too.
