While I like “Social Studies: The Video Game” it sounds like a joke and if the kids are used to a smart alec dad (like mine are) you need to do something…understated.
How about…
“The Allowance Game”.
It dredges up images of Math, work, responsibility, economics…everything boring…AND it is a type a game they could envision adults actually making. 
Hey! I’d like to play some of them games!

If you want high quality, I’d stick with real games, being this close to crunch time. Just find a hi-res image, like this one.
Does anyone know whether the 3DS cases are like DVD cases, where the outside is really an insert behind some glossy plastic? Or are they stickers? Because, if it’s the former, you don’t even need anything special. Plain paper will look fine if it’s under glossy plastic. I’ve done it before.
If it’s a sticker, you’ll need to find some thin photo paper and use glue, and you’ll have to be really good with it. (If you can find glossy sticker paper, that would be better.)
This is so bad, it’s awesome. I love the horn sound!
“You Are Postmaster General Francis Granger: Confirmation Hearing 1K841”
It is a MMORPG in which one lucky player gets to field questions from other gamers who are role-playing as members of the Senate Committee on the Post Office and Post Roads during the pivotal confirmation hearing of Francis Granger.
To preserve the historical accuracy of the event, players do not make up their own questions, but get to choose from a list of questions covering the current events of the day, such as, “Mister Granger, what is your opinion of Dr. Morses’ newfangled electrical tele-graph machine which links Baltimore with New-York?”
…indeed. Battlefield: Spork Competition sounds like so much fun!!!
LOL!

When I was a lad, I got a Timex Sinclair 1000 computer, which came with a maze game, some other game I don’t remember, and Stock Option Analyzer. At the time I thought it was the most boring game imaginable.
Looking back, I’m not exactly sure why they thought that people buying a horrible entry-level home “computer” with 4K of ram and a chicklet keyboard would want to use it to analyze stock options…
anyway long digression, but that’s my suggestion: Stock Option Analyzer 3DS
This is going to be tougher than I thought. I just had to kick them off of “Desert Bus” to post this. So it’s gotta be worse than “Desert Bus”.
Now they’re just messing with you. (Or maybe reading your posts. :p)
How about something that looks like a cheap knockoff of a popular game. Something like “Fatal Fantasy” with 8 bit graphics on the cover. That would be the sort of thing I"d expect my parents to get. Heck buy a cheap SNES cartridge and say something like “This’ll work with that system won’t it?”
No, I am sorry to say that they were into it. I think they were counting on being allowed to stay up until they scored a point. I promised them they could play again tomorrow.
Over the summer I let them play Wii one night as long as they could stay awake. I figured they’d crap out around midnight. At 2 am I gave up and fell asleep on the couch. Woke up at 6 to the sounds of Super Mario Bros. They were mad when I told them to get to bed.
This wouldn’t work. They enjoy, without irony, the 8-bit parody games on Homestar Runner. I think they even played Duck Pond.
Or this from the same company.
I want to punch anyone who buys this game:
