Best Wii games for a 3year old?

nikonuser11 · 22-10-2009, 1:18 PM

As title, just got a Wii and the sports came with it but looking for games suitable for a 3year old boy that are fun and will keep his attention more than the 3 mins of baseball.

thanks

Mario Kart is always a winner and a game anyone can play

i'm impressed if your 3 year old can actually master the controller! My ex's two kids (4 and 7) act like complete spastics when holding the wii remote, the only thing i could get them to do ok on was "let's tap" which has a free play mode which gets them to create firework displays, paintings etc simply by tapping their hands on a box - your one might like that

+1 for Mario Kart. My little one was able to go round the first track (Luigi Circuit) when under 3 years old. She's nearly four now and it's still the only game she plays.

Wii play is ideal for young kids.
Extremely tedious for adults though.

It's still the game I play the most.
Probably the best ever, imo

I don't own a Wii. I borrowed one from a friend a few months back, when my daughter was 3, and he had given me this "Diego" game (Dora's cousin apparently), a character which my daughter knew from the nursery. She sat down first time holding a Wii mote and was able to play the game like a natural. No bother at all.

It took her just under 4 hours of game time to complete the game, and she kept coming back to play more. She also liked the Wii Fit board, specially the Skiing game. However I found the rest of the games terribly tedious (not to mention the image on the screen was horrible!) so I ended up returning the console.

She is now enjoying watching me play through Uncharted 2 on the PS3.

Definitely recommend mario kart - easy for kids to play, nice and colourful and a great game for the adults too.

Would also recommend Barnyard - nice and colourful or maybe even Cooking mama games?

Mario Kart bought and daddy 'tested' it last night, 3 hrs later her indoors said enough!
