I bought my nephew this game for Christmas for his new Nintendo DS. He absolutely loves it. On Christmas day, he had already won five of the dozen or so car races. Each race that is won unlocks the next race. He's still playing it daily. His grandma was looking all over the house for him the other day and he was quietly playing this game! Anyone that has an active 4-yr-old knows that it is virtually impossible to keep them happy and quiet. This game did it!

I bought this game for my 3 year old twin grandsons and they LOVE it. They can fiqure it out better than me. I always end up in a ditch on the side of the track. They carry this game everywhere they go. They play standing up in the doctors office and in the stores.
