LeapFrog Leapster Learning Game: Pet Pals

Great game.
My son is 5 and really likes this game. He likes being able to take care of his pet dog and I like that he's working with letters and words.

Game Educational game
I bought this for my 4 year old newphew. He loves it, his mom says he hated to practice writing his letters, but is SO excited when he helps his dog write letters correctly. My 5 year old daughter received this as a gift this December and although she has been writing her letters for over a year, she also loves this game. The game has different levels to challenge kids. She loves to teach her dog new tricks and hunt for words at the park. This game is definitely worth the money.

Very educational
I bought this one for my 4 year old grandaughter. She was writing her name but needed alot of practise and this game gave her a really fun way to practise her letters. We really had to work hard to get her to practise before this game but now she is wanting to write letters to Santa Claus. I'm very pleased.

great toy for a 5 year old
My daughter is 5 and recieved this game for christmas. She loves it and it keeps her busy.

Pet Pals is fun AND educational
My son got this for Christmas with his first Leapster 2. He immediately took to it. He enjoys taking care of a dog and doing all the things he needs to prepare the dog for the pet show. I only wish that you could re-choose your puppy each time you play. I guess that is why they have three name slots available on the Leapster for Users. The game is pretty challenging on higher levels but I can see his progression and his confidence building as he plays it more and more. This is an awesome game for dexterity, writing letters, and learning the basic functions of the control pad and the stylus pens as well.
