Your little girl is sure to love the way the Littlest Pet Shop Digital Electronic Interactive Organizer in Pink lets her have an interactive pet and a personalized planner that are all her own. She can customize her pet's room and play fun games in the park, all while watching her ratings soar as she spends more time looking after her pet. Designed for ages six and up, this organizer also features an address book, calendar, and calculator for keeping track of real-life.
Take Your New Friend Everywhere You Go
With three AA batteries included, this organizer is ready to go right away. Just make sure to flip the switch on the back from "Try Me" to "Play" before you turn the unit on. The stylus pen and touch screen are easy to use, but you may have to help younger users get used to the motions that make their pet move. Though bubbles above the pet's head will let you know how to keep it happy.

With three AA batteries included, this organizer is ready to go right away. Just make sure to flip the switch on the back from "Try Me" to "Play" before you turn the unit on. The stylus pen and touch screen are easy to use, but you may have to help younger users get used to the motions that make their pet move. Though bubbles above the pet's head will let you know how to keep it happy.
The park is a good place to start having fun. There are 14 different games and activities to keep your child and her pet entertained. Each one lasts 60 seconds. Aim to pop the most balloons as they go by, or get competitive by playing fetch and tetherball. Touch the sign in the park to see the latest high scores.
When your pet needs a change of pace, head to the shop and pick out shoes, tops, wigs, and accessories for a pet photo shoot. Leading your pet all the way through the store can be a little tricky at first, but it gets easier with just a little practice. Once her pet is dressed, your child can pick out a favorite background and save up to four photos. Back in pet's room, one of these photos can be displayed on the wall. And don't forget to feed your pet, who is sure to be hungry after all those activities.
Practical Applications
Since your little girl will want to take her pet everywhere she goes, it's convenient that the unit doubles as a calculator, an address book with space for keeping tabs on new friends' birthdays, and a calendar that spans from now until December 31, 2010. You can even set fun icons to appear on special dates. A full keypad that works with the stylus pen makes adding notes easy.
Parents will appreciate the way this organizer encourages responsibility and planning ahead, as well as the fact that it's easy to turn off the Pet Shop's sound effects. While the pink plastic case seems quite durable, rough play could take a toll on the touch screen over time, so you may want to emphasize the fact that gentle pressure is just as effective as pressing hard on the screen and keypad.
As long as you and your child are prepared to spend some time exploring your new pet's world, and you're not put off by the simple graphics on this unit's gray screen, this digital pet is sure to provide hours of fun. And the organizer ensures that your child will find new ways to make use of this toy as she grows.

I got this for my daughter for her birthday recently. She really likes it, but I have to say, that I am disappointed with Hasbro and the overall quality of the product. The pros and cons are as follows:
Pros: 1)nice outside case; 2)seems durable for the most part; 3)bright screen; 4)fun games to play with your pet Cons: 1)the calendar only goes until 12/31/2010!!!! WHY!?!? Did Hasbro cut corners to save memory? Was it cheapo programming? Lame! Lame! Lame! It should have been programmed to go out at least 5 years from the manufactured date; 2)the calendar will not let you put multiple items on a day (for example: "soccer practice" as one item, "do spelling homework" as another item). It only lets you type 30 characters on any given day. I guess it's not that big of a deal, but it is annoying; 3)there doesn't seem to be any way to delete things off a particular day unless you go and use the backspace arrow for each individual character - this is a pain. There is also no way to copy something from one date to another; 4)It doesn't seem like you can save your preferences for your pet's room (carpet, bed, mirror) - but we may be doing this wrong, I'm not sure; 5)The buttons for typing letters and numbers are somewhat difficult to get to work and they sometimes miss putting the characters up on the screen. You have to tap them again and push maybe a little harder. Sometimes it takes 1 or 2 tries to get the right letter. Beware though, because if you push too hard you could break the plastic stylus; 6) The instructions are weak - they do not explain for example, how to set the current date - you have to go to the clock on the wall for that. I guess for us, this toy is "ok". I expected a bit more. My daughter likes it and has fun with it for now, but I can see her getting bored or even maybe a little frustrated with it in the future. While I didn't expect it to do everything (it is a "toy" and not a "real" organizer), I did expect it to at least have the calendar extend out 5 years. Given how memory is these days, 10 years is even probably realistic - if there were a "delete" function for the past year's information. Two years is really UNACCEPTABLE in my opinion. What a waste when you think about it. I can't even really give it to my neice (4 years younger) as a hand-me-down-toy when she's older because the calendar part will be useless! She would probably still have fun with it anyway, but it aggravates me that it's like this. Anyway, I would still probably buy this, but I wouldn't pay the outrageous prices that I've seen lately ($[...]+ on some sites, this one included - are they kidding??????). Given it's good points and limitations, I would not pay more that $[...]-$[...] (that's about what I paid this last December (2008).

I always hesitate to spend money on little gadgets because often they don't live up to my child's expectation and are quickly put aside after the newness wears off. My daughter really enjoys the organizer and even her Chicago cousin convinced her mom to buy one after playing with my daughter's. I highly recommend this toy!
