After buying my daughter (will be 3 in one month) the Care Bears game and found that it was EXTREMELY difficult even for my 5 year old son (before he attended kindergarten), I decided to look for something with a character that is generally aimed at the 3ish age group. This game is excellent in that the 4 colored buttons are generally used instead of the joystick. The numbers sections are excellent and my daughter does really well with them. The only problem with the shapes section of the learning zone is that it really is about patterns, and not about shapes at all. The biggest problem I found is that for the letters section, Elmo assumes that your child already knows his or her letters. How many 3 year olds can actually differentiate between or identify a “b” and a “p” or a “c” and “g”, etc. At this age, it’s not going to help a kid to sit them down and walk away, an adult or older child needs to sit with them to help them out with the game until they have really mastered it. Overall, I definitely like this Elmo game compared to some of the other games we have. I have also heard the Barney game is similar in that the 4 colored buttons are the main controllers.

While my son likes this game, I have to interpret what Elmo is saying from time to time. We prefer the Lion King game over this one. They are both fun and easy enough for a 3 year old, but the voice on the Lion King game is much more understandable.

This is a good game for a 4 year old. not too easy, but not too challenging. but boy is elmo hard to understand!!! I love the music in this game, but the elmo narration could be better. i know my son doesn’t understand half of what elmo is saying and he just figures out what he’s supposed to do by trial and error. I love the animation – elmo runs into something and he bounces back and giggles. my son loves it and runs elmo into things on purpose just to see that. really cute. It did not get 5 stars just because the narration could and should be more clear for the little ones to understand. we love having to find the animals and then the letters.

My 2 3/4 year old received this game for Christmas. She loves it. Even though she hasn’t mastered the use of the game yet, she can play for hours by herself. She favorate section is the ocean creatures. She swims Elmo all over the place and is upset when it is time to put the game away for the day. My 4 year old loves it too, she loves the fact that she can’t die like some of her game boy games. With this game she works through the different sections with out any frustration, she beats the game and resets to play again. This is a fantastic game for learning and fun.

My son is a little young still for this, but we got it anyway. He is only 2 but loves to play his VSmile Elmo game. He is not yet big enough to understand the educational aspects of the game, but this is going to keep his attention and teach him a lot as he gets older. Highly recommended for little Elmo fans.
