5 out of 5 stars Great way to educate   January 7, 2009
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I have two sons, aged 6 and 11, and both have played this for some time over the Christmas period. Although the presentation and mini games seem to be aimed at a younger age group, which suits my 6 year old, the challenges and quizes are quite tough, which is better for my 11 year old. Some, even I struggle to do, and I'm 38:0) In all, this is a cracking title, and apart from the annoying music (which seems to be present in every DS game aimed at kids), I don't hear a peep out of them when they're playing it, and I know they're doing something more 'worthy' than some of the other DS games they play.


1 out of 5 stars Not suitable for a 6 year old   January 5, 2009
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I tried my 6 year old on it, and the beginning of the game is certainly way above what you could reasonably expect a child of this age to know. As soon as they start, they are asked questions like multiplication tables and other things which aren't on the syllabus for a while yet. I'll persevere but it's a disappointing start to a game which is supposed to be aimed at this age range.

I wasn't too sure about getting this game as it stated for 6 year olds and above. It was well worth the gamble my five year old daughter did struggle at first but with my help, she is winning. It is very hard at first but my daughter has excelled at it. From it being challenging it has made her try harder!!!! My four year old son couldn't understand it though. The only CON is that you can only gain a bonus activity per day, hopefully by the end of the month she should have opened lots of activities!!!!

An excellent educational game for when school is closed!!!!!

At first I thought this game would be too difficult for my 5 yr old, but after spending a little time with it, I realised its potential. To start the questions seem quite tricky, but I think this promotes parent interation during this part of game. Once you get passed the first set of questions your child is then encouraged to use it daily to achieve extra quiz, story or game bonus levels. These are aimed more at the child to play alone and are quite simple. My son especially likes practicing his hand writing and then rubbing it out which is a real bonus! Well worth the reasonable price.

This is a good brain training game for children . It would be too complicated for young children but in my opinion suitable for ages 8 and up to 11. It is good fun as well as being educational.
