 A fun game Apr 24, 2009
This game is very fun, and I have three baby games. This is how I rank them:
Baby Pals: Easy
Imagine Babyz: Medium
My Baby Girl: Hard
That's how I rank them. If you're looking for a mild but not yet complex game get baby pals, it's a good game. If you're looking for a challenging game get my baby girl, it's tricky but fun. Imagine babyz is good too, if you're looking for something in the middle. My name's Hannah and I'm nine years old, I've actually beat the game 7 times! Just post a comment if you're stuck on a month. Thanks!

Very Cute DS Game! Nov 23, 2008
By Illig family Zoo
I bought the boy version of this game and it is very cute. It can be frustrating at times, because the things you have to teach the baby have to be pretty precise. Graphics and sound are done very well. For people wanting to buy both versions...in the instruction book it says when you finish the game (which ever game you own) it will unlock the opposite sex and then you can choose between a girl and a boy. Have Fun!!

One of my kids' favorite games Nov 17, 2008
By Nicolle
Both of my daughters, ages 8 and 9, say this game is "awesome". They say to get the baby to grasp your finger, you just press down on the baby's finger with the stylus, and keep pressing down until a star shows up. I recommend this for girls who are growing out of the doll phase but are still interested in playing "Mommy."

Adorable!! Dec 11, 2008
By Jennifer
"Techie Mama"
Even as a mother with a child of my own, I still have that little girl inside that likes to play with dolls and, having a son, I don't get very much opportunity! I originally picked up Imagine Babyz on clearance and was very disappointed with it. It was put on the shelf after just a few days. My Baby Girl, however, has me hooked!
It lures you in right from the start with adorable graphics and real baby babble and cooing. The interface is very easy to understand, so much that my 3-year-old has no trouble getting around and figuring out what to do. Also, the baby is very interactive. You can stroke her cheek and she'll close her eyes and smile as she coos, or rub her tummy and she'll laugh. The purpose of the game is to guide your baby through her first 14 months by helping her reach certain milestones which are spot on as far as real baby development goes. You will do things like get her to grasp your finger, help her sit up as she develops head and neck control, hold her hands as she stands up for the first time, and so much more. Each month has you teaching your baby something new and it is always enjoyable and even a little exciting to see your baby do something new for the first time. Your goal is to fill her development bar which slowly fills as you teach her new things and seems to randomly go up from doing other activities as well. Though you can't advance to the next month until she's fully learned the new skills, even if the development bar is full.
You can't just teach your baby all of these skills and move from month to month, however. Just like a real baby, she has needs that will need to be tended to. She will give you visual and audible clues to let you know what she wants, but if you let it go unnoticed long enough she will make it very obvious what she needs via a flashing icon. She needs to be bathed, diapered, and fed frequently.
Each activity is pretty detailed in how things have to be done. The bottle needs to be shaken until the "formula" is mixed, and the bottle needs to be held at just the right angle so the baby doesn't get too much or too little and needs to be readjusted as the bottle empties. Diapering is just like the real thing and even requires that you wipe the baby's bottom the right way! Bathing adds a very real element as the baby slowly slips and you continuously have to stop and slide her back up so she doesn't swallow any water. Throughout all the activities, the baby can and will get upset if things aren't done the right way. Washing her too fast will upset her, as will feeding her soup without blowing on it to cool it down first. Once upset, you'll have to stop what you're doing and talk to her and/or cuddle her to stop her from crying before you continue. It really mimics caring for a real newborn in almost every way. That said, it should be no trouble for a child to figure things out as the controls are very responsive and intuitive.
Other activities, though not required, include taking walks, playing on the play mat, changing her clothes, and going shopping. Every activity takes you to a new area. On the optional walks, your baby will see things she likes and does not like. You should move quickly past things that scare her and stop to let her see things she is interested in. It is a little bit tricky as sometimes they come by rather quickly and you may not have time to stop. The play mat is an interesting touch and looks like like a real play mat with arch you'd find in a store. You can even choose from many different toys to hang from the arch, which you buy at the store or can receive as gifts. Shopping gives you the opportunity to buy clothing as well as accessories and toys for your baby. They get quite expensive so will take many many hours of play to acquire them all.
Which brings us to how you make "money" in the game. It's not money, but "stars" which you earn by giving pictures of your baby to a store. Each picture is ranked on a scale from 1-5 bears, depending on how cute the picture is. It seems that the more expensive the complete outfit is, the better the picture. Thus pictures taken in the bathtub or when changing diapers are always ranked 1 bear. The store will give you more stars for "cuter" pictures which you can then use to purchase items at the store.
Alternatively, you can send pictures to Grandma, who will immediately send you a gift of either clothing or toys. Grandma is also picky about the quality of the pictures, and will send you less expensive items for lower ranked pictures. There's also a limit to how much she will give. If you send her enough rank 1 pictures, she will eventually stop sending you gifts for them because there are no more items in that price range to give. The same goes for all ranks. Grandma also gives gifts at the beginning of each month, and sometimes her gifts are ones that can't be bought at the store.
That pretty much sums up the game play, which I hate to admit is pretty short. It should take no more than 6 hours to complete the game. However, once you've completed the game with the original gender, you unlock the opposite gender and also the ability to be surprised the next time you make a baby. When you make another baby, you retain all the clothing, accessories and toys you had acquired previously which lends to the replay value for those who like to collect all the items. I would estimate it would take at least 5 plays through the game to acquire all the items that can be bought in the store, and that's not including the special gifts Grandma gives that can't be bought.
The only con to this game is it's brief length. Your kids can easily finish this game in one night. Also, one minor gripe is that you can't keep your previous baby's photos that are taken at the end of each month to keep track of how she's grown. Once you have another baby, those pictures are lost even though the game recognizes how many babies you've had by displaying it in the upper right corner of the interface. Your helpers, a pediatrician and nurse, can also be rather annoying but that's coming from an adult who has raised a real baby. Being preached at for not holding the baby right while giving her a bottle is intrusive and annoying, but necessary when first learning how to play.
I've read on countless websites that people are having trouble with various points in the game. I've found that when you're having trouble teaching your baby a new skill, talking to her while trying usually works. The baby needs constant reassurance and you'll be talking to your DS all the time to keep her happy and comforted.
All in all, it was absolutely worth the money I paid for it and it looks like it's going to be very hard to find this holiday season.

A very cool and awsome game Jul 14, 2010
Hi I'm Angie and I'm 11 years old. This is a VERY FUN game!!!! Although it is really fun I think it is for the age range of 8-12, or grown-up gamers because there is a lot of reading involved. If you can't read then you really won't be able to understand it at all. Well, I can't really say much about this game because I am stuck on month 3. There are 14 months in all. You have to teach your baby 1 or 2 different things each month.Again, I can only tell you about month 1, 2, and 3, because I am stuck on month 3. Well anyway, in the beginning of month 1 you get to choose what your baby looks like. You get to choose your baby's hair color, eye color, and culture. For example, Caucasian, Spanish, African American, and a few more. You have 1 thing to teach your baby this month. She needs to grab your finger. How you do this is put your virtual hand over the baby's hand. Wait until the finger is out, or pointing. Then just hold it there until she grabs it, and a star appears. On month 2, I'm sorry, but I can only remember one task. The one I can remember is your baby has to learn to follow a rattle with her eyes. What you have to do is just move the rattle slowly back and forth in front of her. It's pretty easy once you get the hang of it. In month 3, you need to get your baby to sit up with her neck straight, and getting her to turn her head and look at the rattle. The first task is easy, all you need to do is pick the baby up so she's sitting, and then hold your hand on her forehead until a star appears. But I am stuck on the second task, so I can't tell you how to do that. If anyone knows how, please comment on this to help me. The other things you do in this game is change your baby's diaper, feed your baby milk and baby food, shop for your baby, play with her, give your baby baths, take her on walks,tickle her, take photos of your baby, and put her to bed. You can also talk to your baby through the Mic. And even calm her down by rubbing her tummy and head. Overall this is a very awesome game so far even though it is pretty hard. And again please post a comment if you know how to get past month 3. Thank you!!! Have lots of fun, this game is definitely worth your money in my opinion!!
