 great for preschoolers September 26, 2008
i bought this game based on a review by another customer. my 4 year old loves it. she wanted a DS because her older cousin had one but a lot of the games were frustrating because she doesn't read that well. Smart girl's playhouse is fun, educational and entertaining. perfect game for a little girl her age.
Great for Toddlers September 13, 2008
Was not going to get any DS game for a toddler, but after my little two year old kept taking my DS and messing up my saved games when I wasn't looking, I went ahead and tried this game. Wasn't sure how it would work out but it ended up being a great purchase! Now my daughter can play her very own game without having me sit next to her to give directions. She loves being such a big girl, and tells me how she can do it all by herself.
I have my DS system set to go directly to the game, so there is nothing that she can mess up. It's great for little ones - 3 to 5 years old.
There are 12 games. For Smart Girl's Playhouse they are: Coloring, find differences, dress up, match sounds, play piano, puzzle, picture match, drawing, counting, play instruments, Lunch box, Feed hampsters, and options.
The options is just birthday (month and day) of the child and the parents. So, nothing that matters if it gets changed a dozen times.
We also have Smart Boy's Gameroom - It's the exact same games except for 3. You loose the very girly ones: feed hampster, making lunch box, and dress up. Those are changed to: car driving, train station, and exterminate monsters (which is the same concept as feed hampsters)
There is also the game: Smart Kid's Gameroom which is both games on the same cartridge. I do not need or want duplicate games, but from what I can tell, when you turn it on - it gives you the option of which game you want to play - the boy's gameroom, or the girls playhouse. So it is just the two games saved onto one cartridge.
Also, very little reading - the main words used in each mini game are: Back, Quit, Next, Redo, Done! Even at that - there's no need to read them. Its very simplified, and easy to figure out which button does what.
With playing piano, there is "record, playback, stop, quit", and in drawing, there are "stamps" and "paint". Those two extra features are the only ones my daughter struggles with - she doesn't seem to care about those features yet, so figure she'll like those extras as she grows.
Overall, they have been great games, and my daughter loves them both, and perfect for her level.
 simple game August 30, 2008
its a decent product if ur kids r under 5. the games r fairly easy to beat even for my 4 year old.
So Your Preschooler Wants to Play Your DS... August 30, 2008
... then let them in on the action with this fun mini game collection geared for younger players. My three year old started playing this around her 3rd Birthday (it was one of her gifts) and she loved it, playing it for hours. Some uninformed family members were worried about her "wasting time" playing video games, but in reality, it is an educational title.
The mini games are varied and fun, including a "feed the hamster" pop a mole type game, a coloring section where you can color in coloring pages or freestyle draw like a simple paint program, there's matching games, musical such as a piano where you touch the piano keys on the screen, and a dress-up paper doll kind of game. The game rewards you doing well by animating the coloring pages when they are done, etc. There are more games than these, but those were the ones that held my daughter's interest the longest.
It's a fun title that is definitely for the 3-5 year age group. Children over that age are probably ready for more challenging titles and would be bored with the laidback, easy approach of this game. However, its perfect for the little one that wants to play DS like her bigger siblings (or like mom and dad).
On that note, the Smart Kid's Gameroom is a combination of both Boy and Girl "Smart" DS titles, and is even a better buy since you get almost twice as many games.
My three girls loved this game August 27, 2008
My three daughters (ages 9, 7 and 3) loved this game. My oldest daughter has special needs but was still able to play. We've owned the game for about a year and it was fought over for the first four months we owned it and though it is not fought over now, each of my girls still pick it up and want to take it on car trips. There are lots of activities to play and though the graphics aren't the best and the things to do aren't going to entertain an adult, children seem to like it. In one activity the kids pack a lunch box and she did this for a whole two hour plane flight. As an adult I watched and could see that there were limited options to pack the lunch and I was bored watching her after three mintues but she just kept packing away. I thought given the price is lower than most ds games that we would just be wasting our money but I was very pleased that it kept all of my girls busy.
