REVIEW
GREAT TOY! I got this for my son's second b-day a year ago. We have had SO much fun with it! The pieces are durable, and there are so many options. But most of all, it's nice having the suitcase for all the parts. My son loves to play with it so much that we just bought his niece the Mrs. Potato Head Silly Suitcase for Christmas. And everytime we have friends over it's one of the first things they gravitate to (even the adults).
Editorial ReviewHe's one goofy-looking potato--but that's never been a barrier to his wide "a-peel"! In this kit, preschoolers are introduced to Mr. Potato Head, the tater extraordinaire. With just 13 pieces, the options may seem limited--but only to adults. And once kids figure out the basics of putting Mr. Potato Head together, they'll want to move on to making extraterrestrial spuds: feet where ears should be, and so on. It's oh so silly! All the pieces store in Mr. Potato Head's body, but young ones will need adult assistance to snap thestorage compartment door into place. --Ava Natov

REVIEW
Frustrating, but still a valuable tool I bought this game, despite the negative reviews, because I really wanted a way for my four year old to work on his fine motor without having to argue about "yes, you must TRY to color in the lines" and "son, you need to TRACE the lines, not free color". He is a very independent spirit :-)
The other reviews are true, it is a frustrating game.
The calibration is an issue (this can be remedied. A Mr. Jason Mortara left a comment on another review stating "To access the Calibration Screen, turn on the Leapster and wait for the Sign In Screen to appear. Then press the Home + Hint + B Buttons simultaneously. Use the Pen to touch the five points that appear." and it works). Even after recalibrating the stylus, if you hold the pencil at different angles than when you recalibrated the line appears in different places. For instance, if you hold the pencil straight up and down during the recalibration, but at a slant when you trace, the line is not in the right place.
When my son does the mazes I feel the game is overly sensitive. You are not allowed to pick up your pencil during the maze, you must make one continuous line. Who doesn't stop to get your bearings during a maze? So you have to determine your course before you put your pencil down, and then don't dare get turned around.
He was becoming extremely frustrated, but what amazed me was that he didn't want to take a break, and try another game. Despite the high anxiety,he still wanted to persist until he got it right.
What we ended up doing was taking turns. I would try a maze, and make sure I crashed somewhere close to the end. Then he would try it. This way he got an idea of which way to go, because it isn't fair to expect them to actually do the maze, AND concentrate on not lifting the pencil, their pencil grip, and not going out of the lines. I felt the fine motor was more important than the logic skills of maze solving, for this particular instance.
So, in the end, it IS a FRUSTRATING game, BUTnevertheless does its job. It still teaches the fine motor skills that my son needs to work on. And it is more entertaining (barely) than the usual PAPER tracing pages, mazes, connect the dots, etc.
A more traditional, paper, alternative to this product would be the Kumon Workbooks, excellent products.
Durability: I'm not sure about this game specifically, because we haven't had it long. However, "Number Raiders" accidentally got put throught the WASHER AND DRYER and still works fine!!! Amazing. Tough little cartridges!!!
