Thank goodness I got this game on clearance at Target for like $[...]. NO WAY would it be worth the retail value. My almost 4 year old was getting frustrated and bored, so I tried it.... I was in the same boat as her, what a snore.... disappointingly NOT fun. Not to mention the controller is difficult to get out of the wands despite the "eject" levers.

This seemed like a great idea for our daughter, but the responses from the game are inconsistent. The games are very simple and only require a few movements here and there. We had to really exaggerate the movements to get the correct response, but they didn't always work. It makes sense to exaggerate the movements for little ones but the loose interest when it does not work consistently.

The TV we used it on also has the Wii (works great), we thought maybe there was some interference from the TV or something else in the room and tried on another TV in another room with the same results.

I bought this for my grandaughter for Christmas, and decided to try it out before Christmas morning just to avoid a potential disaster Christmas morning, and I am so glad I did. I am returning it, and shopping for something else. No matter what actions you do, it does not effect the on screen characters. It was extremely frustrating to me. I can't imagine what it would be like for a four year old. Great idea. Bad product.

My daughter got this as a gift for her birthday and she and my son were excited to use it. The set up for the toy is very easy but the controllers are either too sensitive or not sensitive enough. For one or two of the games (dancing Aurora game) it did not matter what movements the user made for the toy to say they did it correctly and in other games (like the tinkerbell flying game) it would not move the character on the screen.

I tried using the game myself and found it to be frustrating. It is not all that user friendly and after a few times of trying to play the game both of my children got frustrated and refuse to play with it at all.

Disney took the idea of the wii and tried to use the same technology but failed. I hope they come out with a Wii version of this game as then it might be worth it.
