4.0 out of 5 stars Not the best game out of the bunch, but still fun..., October 18, 2010

We own Mr. Pencil, Penguins of Madagascar and Toy Story for the Leapster Explorer. My son is 5 and absolutely loves the Explorer and is having a great time with all of the educational stuff. I asked him to rank his favorite game and sadly, Toy Story came in last. This is coming from a kid who adores Toy Story. It just doesn't seem as exciting as the other games we have and as someone else pointed out, some of it is a little repetitive.

My son is 5 and just received the Explorer and Toy Story 3 game for Christmas. He has been playing it for 3 days straight and we have a hard time getting him to put it down! The characters are great and unlike a previous review that I read, my son has been able to choose to be Woody or Buzz. Great learning games and it keeps his attention. We have also tryed the ni hao kai-lan game and it didn't hold his attention at all, seemed hard to figure out, a bit boring.

My son is 4 and he seems to have trouble with this game. He loves toy story and has seen the 2 movies that are on dvd more times than I can count but this game could not hold his interest. I think some of the levels are a little difficult for his age range. Also, the game is more Woody centric and my son loves Buzz light year. I think the game would be better if you could choose your character. Also, I did not see many of the educational parts showing up. I'm honestly not even sure what it is supposed to teach. The biggest problem right now with the explorer is the limited game selection. I sure hope they come out with more choices.
