Let’s Get Ready with Cedar Valley Publishing

The debate continues on are we ready for a pet in our household?  I know who the work will fall on – me!  I know who is home all day trying to run a few businesses – me!  I know who is allergic to pet dander – me!  So my vote has always be a strong NO! 

But thanks to Go Pets, we can have a virtual pet!!!

The pets in the game, either a dog or a cat, can be chosen randomly or matched to your child based on their interests. The pet’s name and appearance, however, is completely up to your kid. As your child makes their way around the island, caring for their pets and meeting friends, they can trade purple shells they earn for different toys and pet supplies. Your kid can also interact with other characters, and compete in mini games. Kids can also befriend new islanders, exchange gifts, and even unlock new places to visit, all while increasing their ranking and with the goal of acquiring the title of Big Kahuna, the most influential resident of Vacation Island.

GoPets even lets kids connect with other players from around the world by throwing a Wi-Fi party, allowing your child to chat with Nintendo Friend Code buddies. Through the Nintendo DS system, kids can only talk with players that they’ve given their Friend Code to, so you can rest assured that they are only chatting with approved buddies.

My girls, Heidi and Megan, give this game TWO thumbs up!  And THIS mom, does, too!
