Her friends like it and her baby brother play with it and they seem to enjoy it. She doesn't really play with the clickstart system at all. I also bought a dora game for the clickstart; the other children seem to prefer the backyardigans over the dora game. I should have known better; I bought her a Vsmile video game thing on her (4th) birthday and she didn't like it either. She would rather play with her dress up clothes, barbies, and baby dolls. It didn't really fit my daughter's playing style but her baby brother and friends like to play with it so I would recommend this game and the click start system to other parents.
I can't find anything but DVD's for the Backyardigans, so I was thrilled when I saw this on Amazon. Will be a Christmas gift that I know my 3rd old will love.
It has bonus points from her because it's the Backyardigans. This makes it fun to learn. I got this for my four year old daughter and she loves it. It's really easy to use.
There is value in plain old fun and entertainment and that's what this game is. The Clickstart system in general is teaching my kid how to navigate a keyboard, which I appreciate. I don't think everything my toddler does has to be educational. My daughter kinda makes up her own rules in the games and enjoys the sound effects.
I'd give it a slightly above-average level of replayability, i.e. She did become a ninja for a few weeks, saying, "Hai-ya." and karate-kicking her way around the house. Although I'm not sure how much educational content is present in this cartridge, my daughter has enjoyed playing it. she didn't lose interest in it immediately, but it didn't last as long as some of the other cartridges she has, like the Dora one.
