 My 6-yr old daughter loves it, I'm not annoyed by it Aug 08, 2010
This is one of my 6-yr old daughter favorite Wii games (others she likes are Disney Princess, Wii Sports Resort, Endless Ocean, Super Smash Bros.). I've read complaints that the load times are too slow (true, they are slow, but the max wait time for us was about 30 sec. for the dressing room to load up -- we just used the time to take breaks), and that the games are too basic, while other say the games are too hard, etc. etc. I think if a 5-7 year old girl likes Barbie, likes games, and is reasonably adept at video games, she will like this game. The mini-games provide variety (and allows you to play the game in nice little bite-size chunks) and the story and unlockable items provide fun incentives. In fact, I (the dad) enjoy playing the games with her and seeing if we can top our high scores. We did "finish" the game quickly, but my daughter doesn't care, she just has fun with the games and the dressing room.
 What a waste Jan 30, 2010
Maddeningly frustrating! Some of the mini-games don't seem to work properly, as they are incapable of remembering their own patterns. My 5 year old daughter, who is no video game slouch, can't grasp most of the gameplay. Even with my help (I'm no slouch, either), we couldn't make the game function properly.
 Fast Shipping....Just Awesome! Dec 28, 2009
I ordered this game for my daughter for Christmas and she absolutely loves it. The graphics are awesome. I'm a very happy parent right now.

 My 4.5 year old daughter (who is very bright) has a hard time with this game. Jun 30, 2009
My daughter hasn't played this game too much, because she got very frustrated with it almost immediately. It has been awhile since she played it because she prefers smartgirl's playhouse because it's so much easier for her to figure out. But I seem to remember that there were some parts in this game where you have to read the instructions. I could be remembering wrong though. But I do remember that she got very frustrated with several of the games.....they were too hard for her because of having to be pretty precise with tracing drawings, and having to be coordinated enough to move back and forth with the keypad to predict where a fruit is going to fall and hit it on a pillow once or twice to get it in a basket. There were other games that she was frustrated with. She actually cried with this game. And she yelled and screamed. She got very frustrated, and now if I ask her if she wants to play it, she says no.
Perhaps an older child who can be more skilled in fine motor skills, and who has the patience needed for this game, would like it.
Lame Jun 13, 2009
I agree with the other reviewers. My 6 yr. old daughter got this as a birthday present and was so excited to play it. It was DEFINITELY NOT created for the Wii system. Game play is constantly interrupted by having to load new screens, which takes forever. It is very difficult for her to navigate and figure out which remote to use from game to game. It requires a nunchuk for some games but not others, and often the nunchuk doesn't end up working for its intended purpose. There's not flow to the games. The game play is not easily controlled by the Wii remote. As a result, she cannot play this game on her own and needs constant help. The only part of it she seems to enjoy is changing Barbie's clothes in the dressing room. I would NOT recommend this game, and I will NOT buy any other Wii games made by Activision.
