Amazon Reviewer: "My kids LOVE this game. It is truly the best game out there for little kids. (My sons are 3 & 5)...The option of having a "parent aid" who uses the 2nd controller is fantastic for the smaller children, who don't want to give up their own controller to have you do the task for them. "

Amazon Reviewers: " I definitely think that this is a good game for a 4-6 year old girl." The only negative is the bad guys called Bogs: "my 5 yr old (girl)... freaks out a little and they scare her, but they've been easy enough for her to defeat (no dying) and she doesn't have to aim, just wave the wiimote up and down. "
