 Disappointing July 6, 2010

This is very disappointing. This cannot be viewed in South Africa as it is not compatable with the Wii consoles sold in this country.
I have already sent one back and got a replacement which is still not compatable.
It is disappointing as my daughter LOVES jump start and was really excited about getting it on Wii.
 Perfect for Young Kids! June 17, 2010
Cherise Kachelmuss (IL)
I have always been a fan of Jumpstart products, so I was excited when they came out with a game for the Wii geared towards young kids. My 3 year old is always trying to play along with me in games, but they are just too complicated for him and he gets bored and frustrated. Jumpstart Pet Rescue was perfect for him. It is basically an world that you can explore and play games in. There are 30+ games and adventures, 50+ learning lessons, and 75+ fundamental skills, so yes there is a lot to do! Now I will say my 3 year old is not too good at using the Wii remote but he is definitely getting better and this game is very motivating! Right now he has me use it holding his hand and he points to what he wants. The games are fun, his favorite is lining up objects smallest to biggest, but I know we haven't even touched on half the game yet.
I think this game is okay for 3 year olds as far as the games and what you need to do to play, but my son just has a little problem with holding the Wii remote correctly and aiming it at the screen. I can definitely see this game growing with him and with so much to do, I can't imagine him getting bored too quickly. I will say too that before the games inside it takes a few seconds to load which is frustrating to him, but I know most games to do so I am used to it. This is a great game for kids to play to learn and have fun, and if you are going to let your young child play the Wii, this is definitely a great game to start on. I of course don't want my son glued to the TV playing video games but the little bit I let him, I am glad that he has this game to play. It is bright, colorful, full of animals, activities and really is engaging to kids!
Not the best game........ May 29, 2010

This game is a computer game on the wii, not a game created for the wii. It is difficult for my five year old daughter to play, and she gets tired of it quickly. It was fun the first few times we played it, but then it just gets frustrating.
Not too easy May 4, 2010

I originally bought this game for my 4 year old who is almost 5. She is at an average learning level and tolerance for her age. This game did not compel her to want to keep playing at all. She could not figure out how to do things or navigate very easily. She knows how to play other Wii games and is quite good at them. I think I would definitely have to say that this game is pretty much a waste of money.
Cute game but most 3 yr olds can't manuever a Wii remote March 6, 2010

I give JumpStart 2 thumbs up for trying but the reality is most 3 or 4 yr olds can't manuever the Wii remote in these type games. My 3 almost 4 year old can beat just about anyone at Wii sports bowling and boxing but she can not manuever the remote in these childrens games (too much mandatory moving for this age child). Don't waste your money...Wait until their a bit older then buy them games for the Wii. My Child lost interest trying to get the remote where it needed to be before she even got 5 minutes into the game she was handing the remote to me asking me to do it for her (where is the learning experience in that?)
