Mostly unobjectionable until the last episode.

Our 7 year old liked the show quite a bit...mostly because of the fairies and unicorns. I had felt it was a fine show and mostly unobjectionable. Then in the last episode, the writer slapped in a "Hell, yeah!" from a human character. I just don't understand why that was added...there was no need for it.

Fun!

We loved this show. Fun, adventurous, clean. My daughter loves this show and I enjoyed watching it with her.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:

Kids say (1 ):

The backstory of MIA AND ME - THE LEGEND OF CENTOPIA unfolds over several screens; kids can replay it by tapping the heart on the home screen. Kids need to understand the mission to play well, which may be tricky for younger players to grasp. They can still play, of course, but may miss the point. Collecting the dust, tears, and parts while avoiding the obstacles requires precise eye-hand coordination, but, since each level is replayable, kids can improve each time they play. The story line is exciting and engaging for girls without being sticky-sweet or condescending. The fact that Mia is a girl isn't even a factor, which is refreshing and important. The length of play, number of levels, and difficulty are just right to challenge and excite little and big kids.

Did we miss something on diversity?

Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
