This game is a little more than just a candy land game and my 3 year old likes it a lot. She is able to play it with little help and even my 6 year old likes to play it.
My almost 4 yr old daughter really loves this game. She already enjoys the board game so she basically knew how to play "Dora". She was able to sample the software on the Nick Jr. website and got hooked so I had to buy it when the free play time ran out. She's able to maneuver through the game by herself so that's nice. She also likes the mini games that she's able to play during the game. Too bad there aren't more mini games to play. Quite educational with matching colors, sorting shapes, following directions, etc. Just wished I could find it on sale and not pay $20! Overall, a good investment if your child likes playing Candyland and enjoys playing on the computer.
My 3 yr old daughter LOVES this game. The mini-adventures have helped her practice patterns, letters and even spell her own name. She does everything by herself, which makes both of us happy. We've only had it for a week but she plays it about 30 min every day. I don't see her tiring of it soon.
Dora Candyland
The grandchildren have this board game and they are 6&3. They love playing with computer, so I feel it gives them some computer skills with a game they already knew.
when opened, the package looked old and used, while the ad on amazon ran that it is new. also, after installing it, the program had glitches in it and creates red lines that freezes up the computer. had to re-boot. i uninstalled and re-installed so far had no problems yet, but first impressions are lasting.
My 3 year old daughter loves this game, it has good educational material. However there is too much candy promotion for my liking (my wife bought the game).
