Kid Games

Hi, could you sugest good games for non English speaking kids between 3 and 9?

They youngest plays nintendo dogs and electroplankton +- by himself. Kirby canvas curse and Animal crossing with help.

I also have Mario Karts and Yoshi Island but he finds them hard to play and gives up.

Thanks :)

What language?

It is dificult to find Portuguese games for NDS. So I guess English, but intuitive to play.

He gets the hang of Nintendo dogs and elektoplankton. Games like yoshi island and mario are still to dificult for him to play. He's 3 years old.

I have a feeling you won't find many games that will fit that age group. Have you tried the vSmile. My little brother has that and they have games for that age level. I don't know of any DS games that would be of help.

Kirby canvas, also games that are self explanatory. new Supermarioworld...and the mini games.
Eu tambem falo portugues e acho que icnetivar as criancas a aprender ingels e uma boa. :D E um meio interativo de aprender ingles, e estimula aprendizajem por meio de curiosidade. Uma boa demonstracao no que "voce pdoe fazer " no jogo pode chegar a desenvolver um alto nivel de curiosidade. Acredite que funciona! Elite beat Angents e ouendan.

Good luck!

Thanks for the feedback, I bought Kirby Canvas Curse. I now have quite a good collection for the whole family :) (Pity only one Nintendo DS Lite LOL)

We now have Nintendogs, Mario Karts, Animal Crossing, Yoshi Island, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon - Blue Rescue Team, Electroplankton and Kirby Canvas Curse.

But I must admite that my 3 year old son only stays glued to nintendogs. It's really a spectacular show watching him play when he's on his own. He laughs out loud and speaks a lot, and just simply has a great time, that I really would love to find another game for him.

He likes animal crossing but gets frustrated because he can't catch fish without help and fills his pockets rapidly picking up shells and fruit, and selling at the store is still dificult for him to do without help.

He also likes Electroplankton but the novalty has worn off a bit.

He didn't take to Kirby as I expected :(

Guess I just have to wait for him to grow up a little more :)

Thanks again, If anyone else has young kids, oppps maybe I should say younger brothers, let me know what games they prefer to play.

If he is 3 years old, so is good enough he can interact with Nintendogs. You must duenrstand 3 years old would love something like Nintendogs, Puppies says to have great effect on Children :)
If he don't mind, there are many games on this style, but japanese, action titles would be more suited for 5 and up, 3 years old still looking for something thaat can "answer " slowly and rememebr time pass very slow to a 3 years old child, so they have an "eternity" to try everything.
