We have the Wii and the Wii Sports but we have yet to purchase any games yet…the kids want to get a Super Mario game but I’m worried my toddler twins won’t be able to use the remotes. (They get frustrated on the other games at times). They saw a Dora Snow Princess (ugh!) game in the store and wanted it, but I wasn’t sure it was worth the money. Any help would be appreciated.

Maybe wii music its not a game that is all about challenge, its just mimicking musical instruments with the wiimote, as for Mario Galaxy there is a 2 player part where someone could play as Mario and do all the hard work, while the kids could control a pointer on the screen that can be used to collect star bits and interact with the game, all the while as I said player 1 does all the real work, so player 2 shouldn’t get too frustrated.
As for games based on a movie or TV show, including or especially kids movies and TV shows, 99% of them are terrible to play, so my advice would be to avoid them like the plague.
i have a 3 1/2 yr old son. he likes mario kart with the wheel (he isnt great at it, but he enjoys it. wii play is also a cute game. there is a fishing game on there, and when you get a bite the remote vibrates so you can feel the fish and know to pull up to catch it. our family plays rockband alot, he likes to sit in my lap and i hold his hands while i play the drums, he thinks thats cool. or he will play on a toy guitar, playing along like he’s really playing with us.
good luck and have fun!!
My niece is about 3 1/2 and when she comes over she likes to play mario kart with me I let her use the wii wheel and she does pretty good it is a little big for her I find the controllers big for me too (i’m 19)but someone told me they sell children sized controllers.I think a mario game like galaxy or papermario would be to hard for her and other young children.I would try disney games,barbie games,and nickelodeon games instead of mario ones for kids this young.
Yeah, you should get them games that are really just mini games like Mario party or Carnival games.

Mario Kart Wii and Wii Play are great for the family. So give that a try.
