Editorial Review

Ready for big squeals and sighs of delight from the Disney princess-obsessed little girl in the house? Her dreams will come true with this simple board game that brings together four favorite princesses: Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, and Belle from Beauty and the Beast. Competition is fierce among these beauties, as each one hurries to find her gown, crown, bouquet, and purse before returning to her castle to get ready for the ball—and the Prince. The speediest princess will be well rewarded by a happily-ever-after fairy tale ending. Lollygaggers might as well return to sweeping ashes or snoozing away their days. Game includes game board, 4 princess pawns with stands, 4 gowns, 4 crowns, 4 bouquets, 4 purses, dressing room assembly, die, 20 cardboard tokens, and instructions. --Emilie Coulter

3.0 out of 5 stars Disney Princess Gowns and Crowns Dress Up Game, January 7, 2006

My daughter received this game for Christmas and although the concept is very cute and the game is easy enough to play, it can be very frustrating. The gowns are made of rubber and tear very easily. It can also be very difficult for a child to dress and undress the princesses. The other accessories are also made of rubber and don't stay in place, so you're constantly replacing them when they fall off. We now play the game with the princesses already dressed and play for the accessories only. This works out better as the princesses remain standing when fully dressed as opposed to using the plastic stand, which tends to fall off when the princesses are moved. Nonetheless my daughter loves this game and it's one of her favorites to play, but personally I don't think that it's worth the money.

We bought this game yesterday for our daughter. The dolls are very difficult for her to dress. We have to do it for her. Also, two of the dresses have torn already after playing the game only about 4 times. She loves the game and the princesses, and it does teach memory, but it could be made much better.

Twice I gave this board game as a gift this holiday season, and my own 5-year-old daughter received it as a gift. While the idea of the game seems good, there seems to be some misleading print on the box. It indicates that the prinesses will be getting ready to meet Prince Charming at the ball, but there is no Prince Charming included in the game pieces--much to the dismay of my daughter! My biggest complaint about this game, however, is with the gowns and accessories the princesses wear as they move about the board. The straps of the dresses are very thin, and my daughter has broken three of the four gowns. She has also broken two crowns and the strap on one purse. My daughter plays with the rubber Polly Pocket things as well, and she has not torn/ripped any of those items, which makes me think the Crowns and Gowns items aren't made as strongly.
