 My 5 year old is BORED after only a couple hours of play Aug 20, 2010
By brownsfan
"brownsfan"
My 5 year old son asked me last night to sell Toy Story 3 game for him cause its "SOOOO BORING, DAD". We purchased the game just 1 week ago...
I decided I would try to change his opinion - so after the kids were in bed last night I played the game myself to see if I could make suggestions on what he was doing wrong.
My observations:
1) There are 4 games - all 4 are VERY simplistic and boring.
2) The "reward" for doing well in those 4 games is to earn more toys "to play with". However, "playing with the toys" involves opening the toy box and clicking on them so they appear laying around in Andy's room - that's it - there will be no playing with the toys, apparently!
3) At 5 years old (entering Kindergarten next week) difficulty levels 1 and 2 (on all 4 games) are too easy for him, level 3 (which has addition facts like 5+3=?) is too hard - so he just guesses the answers. But I expect that even when he CAN answer those questions, the game will still be boring.
I have older kids so I know that Leapster isn't designed or capable of entertaining the kids like DS or PSP, but I think this particular game does a particularly bad job.

 An immediate hit Jul 16, 2010
By LittleJK

My five year old received this for his birthday. This has been his only Leapster game choice for a week now. However, today he did complain that he'd collected all the toys and does seem to be getting a little bored. This may happen with any of the games. I suggested he play a higher level and that seems to have renewed his interest. Although, he plays for less time and puts it away himself. Not necessarily a bad thing. There are four games to choose from.

Awsome fun! Sep 01, 2010
By adam stroth
Great game, my son who is five was able to play most of the game modes with no help. There are a few that he will be "growing" into. But that just gives the game more to play. The voices are even close enuff to where you cant tell the difference. My son loves this game and he's learning the whole time he plays. Great game.

 Enjoyable game for young Toy Story Fans Mar 11, 2011
By FunkyFrugalMom
For my four-year-old son, this game was fun and entertaining. He played before he saw the Toy Story 3 movie.
Some of it was challenging for him, and I think some of that is him trying to play the game without instruction.
Soon he got it.
I do see how soon his skill set may surpass that needed to play this game. Not because my son is advanced but b/c the games seem somewhat simplistic that a 5 or 6 yr old may get bored. I prefer that games involve numbers and letters, and a bit more learning value. However, I am sure the hand-eye coordination skills he is gaining from this game are beyond what I can see. Great graphics.

Happy Kids Nov 28, 2010

My niece was very happy with her gift. She opened it (age 4) and ran to get her Leapster game and immediately inserted the disk and was winning points within the first 5 mins. AMAZING.
