I have a 5 year old who loves this game. She's had it for about a year and it's one of her favorites. It never gets old.
The player must find books and win treasures in the various games to fill Belle's library and Ariel's Cave. The games teach spelling, letter recognition, sound recognition, number sequence, counting, number recognition, addition, subtraction. There are three levels to choose from in each game. The kids pick up on it right away that the lower levels are easier.
This game is fun and there are so many things to do. Oh, and did I mention educational? I highly recommend it for any young girl who wants to be a princess.
Below, I describe the games available.

| I bought this for my grandaughter. I didn't try it myself, but she truly loves it. It certainly doesn't hurt that it's very educational as well. |
