This is a great Wii game for little kids because it's based on in-home research conducted by Nickelodeon that looked at how preschoolers could best use the Wii controllers. The game incorporates 13 Wii-centric motions that are easily learned by preschoolers because they mimic motions done in real life. If you want to swim across a lake, you make a swimming motion with you arms. To help some water buffalo grow back horns that the magician has taken away, you hold the Wii remote in one hand as you place your hands on the side of your head. Then you stretch out your arms and put them back on your head, repeating this motion until the horns have grown back. You can also mimic digging, flapping your ears like an elephant, waddling like a hippo, playing a drum, and much more. Unlike other video games, kids can't fail when playing this game. For example, no timing is required to grab hold of a rope that is swinging by: You simply push the "2" button. And once airborne, you can't fall -- you just keep swinging until you hit the "2" button again. Plus, parents can join in if little ones are struggling by grabbing a second Wii remote. For example, when kids are helping Diego blow up a hot air balloon by pumping their arms up and down, if someone joins in with a second remote, the speed of the pumping increases and fun animations appear. The game also has two-person games that are cooperative, not competitive.Read full review
This is for the Wii - Safari Rescue - Great Game for Kids - my daughter loved it ever since she was 3 - though she could not play at that time, we played for her- she used to watch - now that she started playing - won't give us the controls :)
Verified purchase: Yes | Condition: Pre-owned
We (my husband and me) love our Wii but the kids want to play too! This game is a great way to introduce them to the movements of the Wii system. Even my 2 year has a fun time running his truck in the safari race. It is a simple up and down motion with the remote. Something he can even do by himself. What a great way to build up hand/eye cordination!
This game was bought for my 3 year old who had not played any games before. At first he had a tough time understanding the connection between the Wii controller what was happening on screen. Once he figure out that he was making Diego move he wasn't interested in learning how to do it right. That's my boy! Great easy game for the 3 - 6 year old. Too easy for most though. Not very long but a must have for the Dora/Diego fan in the house. An adult can help on some "boss" levels. Also neat two player racing.
This is a GREAT game for the little ones in your house to get started using the WII! My daughter is almost 3 1/2. She played this game for 2 hours the first night. With this game they have to go through the motions of using their arms and the Wii remote to "Dig out of the hole," "Climb the ladder," "Shake the tree," and so much more. This is an awesome game! Easy for them to play and excel. From what I have read about this game, they studied children and their instinct moves to finish this game! Definitely a beginner game to help youngsters start using the Wii remote!
