Somewhat Fun and Playful

My 5 year-old daughter wanted some games to go with her new Nintendo DS Lite Metallic Rose. It is sometimes hard to find games for young children who cannot read a lot yet.

She played this game without much assistance and it has held her attention. The few times I picked it up, it was fun but not hugely challenging (maybe because we haven't played through all of it yet.)

One of the problems that I see is that you cannot save multiple player games. This means that I need to play her game and cannot advance at my own pace without changing her play experience.

The tasks you need to complete to grow a beautiful garden are somewhat fun and require some timing and touch screen control.

The voices are rather annoying but my daughter thought they were funny.

One of my favorite sequential games similar to this is Diner Dash. It seems to be much more challenging.
