Lisa loves clothes, makeup and helping her family. She is 1 of 5 kids and helps her parents, A LOT! Her mother asks her to shop, clean up after the babies, help put the triplets down for naps, cook and more. Her father has her help put furniture together. Girls can enjoy making clothes and if you are playing it on a DSi, they can take pictures of items and use them as patterns for the items they make.

As a mom, I really liked that the clothes and make-up, as in the real world, require money purchase. The mini-games are easy and fun plus they are where they can earn the money for more accessories. The graphics are well done and the game itself is very user friendly.  It can really keep girls my oldest daughter’s age entertained for hours and I can totally see her sharing this game with her friends.  Since a lot of reading is required, I think girls need to be fairly comfortable in their reading skills or they (and you:) may become frustrated quickly when they constantly have to ask for help.  Although it is rated E for Everyone, I would recommend it for roughly ages 7-11.

Lovely Lisa and Friends is for Nintendo DS,  created by Tomy, is available for about $29.99. It can be purchased at Amazon.com as well as your favorite store for games near you.
