3.0 out of 5 stars Cute but why so much reading??, October 31, 2009

We bought this for our 6 year old. She is just starting to read, so my husband and I find ourselves having to sit with her and read every thought bubble. The problem with this is, most conversations are full of ridiculous jokes and extra reading to make one point.

The graphics are cute, the idea (the pets throwing a surprise party for a new friend's arrival) is a good one. The scenery and games are also fun for my daughter.

While the previous Pet Shop game was mostly wandering around and playing games, this one is more task oriented. I am curious as to what lies behind the surprise party, because it will be anti-climactic if that is the end of it all. However, by then, maybe all this silly conversation will die down and more game playing will happen.

I would rather the pets talk themselves than to have a lot of reading to do. If they would like to pretend that it is helping my child read, the speech would not be as goofy and the words would be less 'cutesy'.

So sure, she loves it, we hate it.

Littlest Pet Shop Friends for the Wii was a huge hit in our house. My little party planner had a great time getting ready for the "party of the year" with her pet friends. This was one of those games I had to keep telling her she'd been playing too long. And, if you have kids you know that's a major indicator that the game was pretty cool. I like that it's a multi-player game that caused the kids to do some problem solving. There is a lot of reading (as mentioned in the other reviews), so be prepared to read if your child is younger than 2nd grade.

This is a very nice game, but there is way too much reading for younger players. If your kid can't read proficiently, be prepared for hours of pet puns and cutesy banter that barely server to move the game along. Hopefully you can convince your kid to keep mashing the A button so you don't have to read every word.
