Fun:
Sorry to go against all the others who clearly love this. We got this at Christmas, primarily as we have a 5 yo and 3 yo in the house - our 5 yo can cope with almost anything on the Wii (including thrashing her dad at Wii Tennis) but our younger one was a little left out. As the game is targetted at younger players the score of three stars reflects our concerns in what it offers.
We got this for our youngest as other reviews said how easy it was to use (and she, like most 3 1/2 year olds pick stuff up fast) but this really was a big disappointment for me and our kids.
The basic storyline sort of follows bits of the film (not that it would really matter anyhow) but the actual gameplay seems to be endless snippets of minigames that often dont quite make sense (especially to a younger player) and you need some idea what you should be doing - for example near the beginning you are in the derelict restaurant and have to choose who to talk to. Each character choice leads you to a diferent part of the story, so you pick the big bloke and end up at the dinner party some way into the story. And then you make another choice and have to pick a dress for one of the characters, or bake a randomly generated cake, or waggle the remote in a really basic 'dead fishes' style game. Me and the kids spent quite a few bemused periods before the disc got taken out in favour of almost anything else, though usually Lego Harry Potter 1-4. In comparison, really old Spyro games on the PSOne are way more fun for young kids than this, even if the controls are near impossible for them half the time
Maybe we are missing something here, but it seems to be a a disc full of mediocre mini games loosely connected to an ok Disney film. It was too difficult for a 3 yo to understand what was needed next, and too boring for a 5yo who didnt see any challenge or interest in it to bother

Fun:
I was looking for a game similar to the disney princess- enchanted journey. this is great. lots of little mini-games earning beads that can be exchanged for new outfits for Tiana and her friends to wear. at the same time completion of levels earns upgrades for the restaurant. my 4 yr old loves it and after initial supervision can now play it unaided.

Fun:
bought this for my twin girls who are 5... it took a bit of time for them to get used to but now they play it by themselves very confidently. They especially love being able to dress up all the characters and spend ages getting the look just right! it's great that they can play it together aswell (although they often argue about whose turn it is to be to Tiana!)
would definitely recommend as there are loads of mini games that you can play which are lots of fun and up to 4 people can play together. they are probably a bit young to start renovating their restaurant but they have made a start! they can't get enough of it at the moment!

Much enjoyed by the younger members of the family but the older ones had no idea what they were doing!

Good, but you need to be there to read things
It frustrates me as a parent to choose something you hope your pre- or early-schooler can play by themselves and then find there's lots of bits to read which they can't do... Read more
