LeapFrog® Leapster® Learning Game: Toy Story 3

My 5 year old is BORED after only a couple hours of play,
My 5 year old son asked me last night to sell Toy Story 3 game for him cause its “SOOOO BORING, DAD”. We purchased the game just 1 week ago…
I decided I would try to change his opinion – so after the kids were in bed last night I played the game myself to see if I could make suggestions on what he was doing wrong.
My observations:
1) There are 4 games – all 4 are VERY simplistic and boring.
2) The “reward” for doing well in those 4 games is to earn more toys “to play with”. However, “playing with the toys” involves opening the toy box and clicking on them so they appear laying around in Andy’s room – that’s it – there will be no playing with the toys, apparently!
3) At 5 years old (entering Kindergarten next week) difficulty levels 1 and 2 (on all 4 games) are too easy for him, level 3 (which has addition facts like 5+3=?) is too hard – so he just guesses the answers. But I expect that even when he CAN answer those questions, the game will still be boring.
I have older kids so I know that Leapster isn’t designed or capable of entertaining the kids like DS or PSP, but I think this particular game does a particularly bad job.

|An immediate hit,
My five year old received this for his birthday. This has been his only Leapster game choice for a week now. However, today he did complain that he’d collected all the toys and does seem to be getting a little bored. This may happen with any of the games. I suggested he play a higher level and that seems to have renewed his interest. Although, he plays for less time and puts it away himself. Not necessarily a bad thing. There are four games to choose from.

|My 4 year old loves this game!,
My son loves this game. It is hard enough that he is challenged but not so hard that he gets frustrated. We love this game, it is the most played game in our collection right now!
