I should have known better; I bought her a Vsmile video game thing on her (4th) birthday and she didn't like it either. Her friends like it and her baby brother play with it and they seem to enjoy it. She would rather play with her dress up clothes, barbies, and baby dolls. She doesn't really play with the clickstart system at all. It didn't really fit my daughter's playing style but her baby brother and friends like to play with it so I would recommend this game and the click start system to other parents. I also bought a dora game for the clickstart; the other children seem to prefer the backyardigans over the dora game.
I can't find anything but DVD's for the Backyardigans, so I was thrilled when I saw this on Amazon. Will be a Christmas gift that I know my 3rd old will love.
I got this for my four year old daughter and she loves it. It has bonus points from her because it's the Backyardigans. It's really easy to use. This makes it fun to learn.
I don't think everything my toddler does has to be educational. There is value in plain old fun and entertainment and that's what this game is. My daughter kinda makes up her own rules in the games and enjoys the sound effects. The Clickstart system in general is teaching my kid how to navigate a keyboard, which I appreciate.
Although I'm not sure how much educational content is present in this cartridge, my daughter has enjoyed playing it. I'd give it a slightly above-average level of replayability, i.e. she didn't lose interest in it immediately, but it didn't last as long as some of the other cartridges she has, like the Dora one. She did become a ninja for a few weeks, saying, "Hai-ya." and karate-kicking her way around the house.
