Title: Great Mat, But "game mode" is too fast for beginning age group.
Review: I know a lot of people are complaining about the "game-mode" of the dance mat. I completely agree that the game is too advanced for a 3-year-old, maybe even 4, but I think this is a benefit. This gives the mat more longevity and my son (who just turned 3) will play with it for longer. Right now, he really enjoys making his own music by jumping on the different characters, or playing "back-ground" music to the 4 pre-made songs. I haven't found any problems with needing to have your feet in a specific place. I have played on this mat several times, and, if anything, I feel it is pretty generous with where you can step. Also, I have played the dancing game twice, and it is hard, but I was able to play for a minute. I think it is a great stepping-stool kind of toy. I would highly recommend this, but if you are looking for a "follow-me" kind of game for a 3 year-old, this mat isn't for you.
