My 5 yo loves this game. She has been playing it for a year now and is getting much better at baking cakes, making breakfast, etc. She does some bizzare stuff in the kitchen
, but it's all in good fun and I don't have to clean it up! LOL I highly recommend it.
IF I HAD A TOP 10 LIST, THIS WOULD BE ON IT!

I have a 5 year old daughter developing typically and 7 year old son with autism. Never have I found a game they both like SO MUCH, and I'm here to tell ya that even as their mother and at my age I EVEN HAD FUN playing! I've never left a review here before, but felt so strongly about the game I just had to!
There is no strategy, winning or losing to this...it is simply about enjoying 'pretend play'. Getting to do all the things you see mommy and/or daddy do in the kitchen. There are too many features to list...but there's a stove which can turn into a grill or bakery, a sink where you fill your pot to boil noodles or wash dishes if you add the soap. A microwave, choice of tableclothes, silverware, glassware, a fridge and freezer fully stocked for all types of meals and treats. A phone, radio, a recipe box you can summon.
This is a great game for a child like my daughter that loves to immitate mommy in the kitchen, and loves playing with her pretend kitchen. However, with this game, when she finishes creating one of hundreds of breakfasts, deserts, meals...she can serve Mickey and Minie and they tell her how delicious it was as they eat it in front of her.
My son enjoyed being told how delicious his creations were as well, and I have never seen him take that kind of pride in that type of thing before...for sure not on a computer, and rarely even in real life.
The best part for me is they get the satisfaction of cooking and playing 'kitchen' with NO CLEAN UP for me!
I'd give this game a 10+, but it only allows 5 stars.
And btw, neither of my kids were familiar with Mickey and Minie mouse, so that is not a prerequisite to enjoying this game.
Fun

Bought this for my 4 year old daughter, but I found my three older step daughters (ages 10-14) all waiting in line for a turn - they enjoyed it as well! Easy game and fun. For ten bucks, definitely worth it.
cooking yuck

I bought this game for my 5 yr old after reading the reviews (espcailly the one about an autism kid liking it) and what a bore this game is!!! After you bake a cake & cook breatfast there nothing else to do (and that only takes a few mintues to complete). Yes, you can move things around in the kitchen, pour milk in a glass but what fun is that?? And Mickey & Minnie won't come and eat (only if you make a cake or breakfast they show anything else you cook just sit on the table) my son got really upset when he set the table, bake a chicken and Mickey & minnie didin't show. Plus after you pour milk in a glass, pop some pop corn there nothing left to do, my son played the game for maybe 10 minutes and did everything and now he doesn't care to play it anymore. If your kids really like to cook they'll love this game, but if your kids are not into food & cleaning up they'll get bored fast!!
Cute game for younger kids

I got this game for my 5 yr. old son and he loves playing it. It's a great game to start as most of the other games require strategy and making complicated moves but this game allowed him to make simple moves so he could get used to the game paddle. His favorite activity is baking and decorating a cake then watching Mickey and Minnie enjoy eating it. He also has a lot of fun cookign breakfast on a griddle. Overall, a really cute game which engages him for a long time.
This game is way too slow.

I purchased this game for my 3 year old. It was way too slow for him. My son loves Mickey and Minnie mouse but, after playing this game I do not think he likes them anymore. I will put it away and give it another try later.
Very Fun Game

I bought this for my four and six year olds. My four-year old hated it. It was too slow and didn't challenge him enough. He started using the playstation recently and the first game he played with was the 'Toy Story 2'. He loves it!! This one doesn't compare to it. It's not enough for him. I'm not even going to bother letting my six year old play with it. She's too advanced for it. May be ok for tiny, tiny ones. The graphics are really cute though.
5 Year Old Daughters Like It

My twin 5 yr. old girls like this one. While it's not the coolest software on earth, they enjoy the fun of cooking in Mickey's kitchen. It is bright, cheerful, and engaging. It's not a must have, but it was a gift to us, and they do like it.
A little girls dream come true.

My 5 year old daughter thinks this is great!!! She loves to help in the kitchen, but, I can't really let her near the stove to cook. With this she is baking cakes, pancakes, decorating cakes. Changing the kitchen around. I have to make her shut this off to eat at night. Again, this is great for the littler helper who just can't really help out in the kitchen yet.
