Friday, August 28, 2009

This week, Abby and I are hooked on the Pet Rescue Wii game!

You may remember the review we did of the JumpStart World computer game back in February. Well now JumpStart has released a Wii version of the game!


We received the JumpStart Pet Rescue Wii game a few weeks ago and Abby has really enjoyed it! She was able to start right up on the Wii and play the game like on the computer.


Her favorite part is feeding and cleaning the animals. She's really good at getting around and it's so cute to watch her play.


She also enjoys the many games and stories along the way. The best part is, these are learning games: numbers, alphabet, pre-reading skills, listening skills and more. The ESRB (Entertainment Software Rating Board) has rated the Pet Rescue Wii game for Early Childhood. Pet Rescue is the first educational game on the Wii for ages 3 to 6.

I love the adorable characters and the colorful graphics. It's so nice to have a game that is child friendly and educational.

JumpStart Pet Rescue will be priced at $39.99. It will be available on September 1st at Walmart and September 2nd at other retail stores.

For a chance to win JumpStart Pet Rescue Wii, head to the JumpStart blog. They are giving away 25 free copies!

How great that kids can learn about taking care of pets while they're learning the alphabet :-)

Video games have come a long way... the first game I had was an Atari game where you moved a bar up and down to hit a dot on the screen!!
