 | Dora the Explorer: Dora Saves the Mermaids
Buy new: $12.79 / Used from: $16.00 This game looks like garbage but my 3 year old daughter loves it. There are still shots from the "Saves the Mermaid" short, and plenty of audio. Pick up color matching garbage, navigate the sea, and more. Very simple touchscreen and voice controls.

 | Go Diego Go: Safari Rescue
Buy new: $13.79 / Used from: $10.88 Pretty much the same thing as the Dora game, except featuring her cousin, Diego.
|
 | Petz Hamsterz 2
Buy new: $16.41 / Used from: $10.86 A simple hamster simulation game from Japan that was brought over under the Petz label. The "world" (people, pet store, owner's house) is very impersonal in shades of grey, but the hamster's cage and accessories are 3D. She LOVES this game, and was so excited that she talked about her hamster "Shashi" for weeks after we got it for her.

 | Petz Bunnyz
Buy new: $30.99 / Used from: $19.19 Personally I think this game is cuter. It has mini games where you can "win" food. However, if you are not good at them you can't feed your pet, since it doesn't have a store/buy option like other sims. The mini games are very fun A great title for older children (5+) but she liked it too and still plays with it.
|
 | Crayola Treasure Adventures
Buy new: $31.99 / Used from: $14.80 This is an excellent game for kids of all ages. There is a 'quest' mode, where you solve jigsaw puzzles, connect the dots and color your way to victory through three exotic locales The "coloring book" can be accessed seperately from story mode, and has tons of crayons and hundreds of coloring pages from dinosaurs, animals, cars and trucks and more.

 | Smart Kid's: Gameclub
This is Smart Girls: Playhouse and Smart Boys: Gameroom combined into one cartridge. My daughter played the Smart Girls portion of this for HOURS and DAYS and still asks for it.
|
 | Smart Girls: Playhouse
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $17.99 This is actually the one she owned originally. It's just the girl's version ONLY. Still a great product for the price.
|
 | Cooking Mama
Buy new: $16.34 / Used from: $14.00 My daughter loved this game for awhile. It allows you to "cook" various meals, and while she couldn't actually do well in the game, she could complete the meals and arrange them at the end (her favorite part, such as putting ketchup on the hot dogs or arranging toppings on a pizza).
|
 | Cooking Mama 2: Dinner With Friends
Buy new: $27.99 / Used from: $22.99 The sequel, it's more of the same, and still fun, although she was Cooking Mama'd out by the time this was released.
|
 | Build-A-Bear Workshop
Buy new: $19.82 / Used from: $17.79 This game is utter garbage.
BUT she loves it.
You can "make a meal" for your bear and watch him/her eat, take him outside to "teach him" games (by using the stylus controls to make symbols) and more. It was well worth the money even though there seems to be some development bugs, she doesn't care.
|
 | Smart Girls: Magical Book Club
Buy new: $26.50 / Used from: $14.25 This is a collection of the three Interactive Storybook titles in one cartridge. Each section has four stories that it will read aloud and show still pictures of, and then offer activities that coordinate with the stories (such as coloring the Three Little Pigs, etc).
|
 | Smart Girl's: Party Game
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $31.20 Similiar to the first Smart Girl's game, but has all new mini games. Daughter especially likes the doll house and xylophone games.
|
 | Littlest Pet Shop: Winter
VERY cute and well made. We have the Garden version but all three are basically the same game.
|
 | Littlest Pet Shop: Jungle
Buy used from: $23.99 The jungle, garden and winter areas can be unlocked in all three games. Each one has exclusive pets though.
|
 | Littlest Pet Shop: Garden
16 mini games, four worlds, about 20 pets for you to name. Tons of stuff to unlock, cute music, cute graphics, a great Littlest Pet Shop experience.
|
 | Disney Fairies: Tinkerbell
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $16.27 A VERY beautiful game but recommended for six and up. Requires ALOT of reading. My 3 1/2 year old does like flying Tinkerbell around anyway even if she cannot complete the goals.
|
 | Disney Princess: Magical Jewels
Buy new: $18.25 / Used from: $16.09 This looks to be a decently made game. She tried it and found the controls to be too difficult for her (she only wants to use the stylus...). Perhaps in the future? The depictions of the princesses are very cute, and you move through the castles as four of the princesses collecting things in a standard, but colorful platformer.
|
 | My Little Pony: Pinkie Pie's Party
Buy new: $44.01 / Used from: $17.40 Fairly simple game but the main seven ponies and their Ponyville world are recreated wonderfully. There's about two hours of entertainment here, but my daughter has played it over and over. Well worth the price and a cute game too.
|
 | Smart Girl's: Winter Wonderland
Buy used from: $54.99 UPCOMING and not released yet.
|
 | Go, Diego, Go!: Great Dinosaur Rescue
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $10.87 Pretty much the same thing as Safari Rescue, which is disappointing. My 4 year old beat the game in 30 minutes. She has played it a few times since but this one gets stale fast. Not worth $30 at all.
