 My daughter loves her DS it comes everywhere we go. But she’s eight and has the attention span of a gnat, so to keep her occupied we try to find games that are challenging and not just baby walk through games. She had the chance to try Gardening Mama 2: Forest Friends on Nintendo 3DS™ from the Majesco the makers of one of her favorite games Cooking Mama. 

Cooking Mama has kept her occupied for hours on end, she’s still trying to master all of her recipes she’s getting better but there still is a lot of playability of that game. So when she was given the chance to play Gardening Mama 2 I knew right away this is a game that will pique her interest and keep her occupied. Much like Cooking Mama, Gardening Mama 2 is a multi-level game that has 100 mini games on top of the levels; it’s a deep and complex game.  

 It’s a stylus based game which is just like Cooking Mama so my daughter has had no problem playing the game play is simple but not so simple that your kid will tear though it in a night. I love the fact that she has to use her brain to figure things out and it’s also building her hand eye coordination because she’s using the stylus and reading what she has to do next.  My daughter has fun helping her animal friends grow their forest businesses, earning rewards and customizing her garden.

Games like Gardening Mama 2 challenge kids, it makes them think, it makes them read and helps build dexterity. Plus being a city girl she might not have many opportunities to do gardening  so this might be as close as she gets! We may have a concrete “garden” so my daughter does not have a real garden to explore, but she is having a great time growing and cultivating her fruit and veggies, her watermelons are looking great, in Gardening Mama 2!
