Crummy video, vapid content, no educational value [Posted on 2007-12-11]
My daughter (age 8 1/2) has been begging for this for months, based on the constant barrage of advertising on children's TV. I quickly checked the reviews here and saw that it was highly rated and inexpensive, so I bought it for her. I am stunned and appalled at how awful it is. It's similar to any one of the online sites such as Be-bratz, WebKinz, and Club Penguin, in that you create a character, move through various rooms and areas, do tasks and chores, earn money, and spend it on stuff. The video quality is awful compared to any of those sites, the music is tedious. The graphics are simple and ugly. Worst of all are the blatant stereotypes in the content - you can be "athletic" "funny" or "brainy," you can say dialog like "I think I just failed my math test" and you can have boring conversations with your friends like "I like your necklace, did you make it?" The main purpose is to get money and buy stuff. I wish I could throw it out the window.
I will add that my kaughter is delighted with it, so far, after one session.
Great toy for girls [Posted on 2007-12-27]
My 7 1/2 year old played this at a friends house and fell in love with it. We bought it for her for Christmas and she loves it. Our daughter is really shy and I thought this would be great for her to learn about life choices and how to communicate better. I also see it as a reading tool. She has to read and learn to navigate her way around. Great toy!

Fun game for my 5 and 8 year olds. They wish you could do a bit more with the game. For example, actually do a job or go to a real pet shop. Overall, the game is easy to use and fun.
fun game [Posted on 2008-01-02]
This game is so much fun my daughter told me. She said she would recommend this for every one. I think i would too! this game is also educational. My daughter loves this toy so much! I would buy it again for sure.
Great for little girls under 10 [Posted on 2008-01-08]
My little grandaughter plays with this constantly. She loves it. She can learn creativity with it -- so it can be somewhat educational, but overall I think it is just plain fun!! I have actually played with it together with her.
