I'm not really into LPS (littlest pet shop) but I got it for Christmas so I tried it out and I loved it! The mini-games are awesome, and overall the layout is cute and unique. I can't wait until the spring version arrives at our Toys R Us, and I hope it'll be just as fun as my Winter edition. Sadly though, for kids who can't read, the people who would be playing this game, you need a pretty good reading ability, so it's kinda iffy.(Reviewing for DS)
My 5 yr old daughter LOVES this game. Reading ability is helpful however the on screen graphics do a good job of "showing" what the kids have to do. My daughter can read and hasn't asked me to read anything for her. Also the long forgotten LPS figurines from her room are now getting played with! Overall LOVE it, very cute game for girls.
