Title: A fun parent-child project for a younger child
Review: I bought one of these for my 5 year old son and one for me. It's been a huge amount of fun sharing the care of our pets together. Figuring out how to use the virtual pets is not at all difficult for a grown-up or older child, but it would definitely be too hard for him to figure out alone. With a bit of help from me he has learned all he needs to know (a bit of word recognition is required of him), and we have great fun babysitting for each other and connecting our pets via the infrared capability. In our current Tamagotchi generation we have a boy and a girl, and (I never dreamed I'd have a context in which I'd say this) I'm looking forward to having babies with my son. It's been a great bonding experience and a decent learning experience for him, and I'd recommend it to other parents as a fun activity to share with a caring, gadget-loving younger child.
