Hard Game
We bought this for our kids. They are 8, 7, and 5. This is too hard for them. I even tried to play, it is very hard and complicated. Not recommended for kids.

A lot of reading and math...great for older kids, not as good for younger ones.
The game seems pretty good, but I had to help my first grader. It is a little too advanced for her in the reading and math department. I wish the games would indicate how much reading and math is necessary to play. A first graders' skills aren't that advanced. This would be great for a 10 year old. I would recommend the My Little Pony for the younger ones, we got her that later and she loves it!

Horsez- cute and fun
My nine year old daughter got this game for her birthday. We had a little frustration at first trying to figure out how to make money, but once we figured out building the guest house was free, we were off and running! This game is pretty simple, with little frustration, which is a nice change of pace. Even I have a saved game on it as it is fun (and a little addictive) to build your ranch. It is fairly open-ended- you don't have to follow tasks in order, just decide what you want to buy and build and watch your farm grow. No having to figure out and find what so-and-so wants in order to move on...just wait for guests to pay and spend time fiddling around with the horses. It can be a little boring at times because there's only so much horse care you can do and you can't "end your day" till a certain time. We just let the clock run and take a break. Once you get more things built and more horses, there is more to occupy your time. I think it's great for kids age 6-10 and even adults can have fun with it.
