My tech savvy 5 year old (6 in April) has started showing some interest when I'm playing xbox (VERY rare these days), and I was wondering about games for her.


Saw this on Amazon


http://www.amazon.co.uk/Disney-Infinity-2-0-Toybox-Pack/dp/B00MTG1TD0/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1424010705&sr=1-1&keywords=disney+infinity+toybox+merida


Seems to be Disney trying to cash in on the whole Minecraft thing. In theory I think she'd love this (especially as you can buy a separate Elsa to use in the game). But I don't know how hard they are to play, and I wouldn't want it to just frustrate her.


She has ASD, but she is very good at the computer / searching for stuff on the TV / Netflix, and stuff.


Just wondering whether anyone has tried this game and if it's any good?

There are loads of videos on youtube of people playing it. Our 6yr old daughter loves watching them but I am always close by to check the language, nothing too terrible but odd inappropriate exclamation. But you watch it to get a view of the games. Disney Infinity annual 2015 is available in Poundland Peckham.
My son (6 last month) got the marvel version for Christmas, am not sure why you are likening it to Minecraft as I don't see any similarities at all. Having said that I know that he/we have not spent much time playing in the 'toy box' which seems to be the area where you create your own games. The set you have copied a link for only operates in toy box mode. The little we have done in toy box is really very lovely with very good tutorial, wonderful graphics and several characters. I don't think it would be frustrating, addictive maybe!!
You don't have to necessarily take part in missions when they come up, they are stored in a mission log and can be accessed at any time although sometimes 'monsters' may appear they can be engaged in battle or ignored. My son also enjoys just going around using the various characters abilities, some fly, spiderman travels using webs etc. IMO it's a game that can be enjoyed on lots of levels.

    • The top front tooth has popped out.  Attempted to fix myself with repair kit bought from Boots, unfortunately it didn’t last long.  Tooth has popped out again.  Unable to get to dentist as housebound but family member can drop off.  I tried dental practice I found online, which is near Goose Green, but the number is disconnected.   The new dental practice in FH (where Barclays used to be) said it’s not something they do.  Seen a mobile dental practice where a technician comes to your home and does the repair but I’m worried about the cost. Any suggestions please? Thank you 
    • So its OK for Starmer to earn £74K/annum by renting out a property, cat calling the kettle black....... Their gravy train trundles on. When the Southport story that involves Starmer finally comes out, he's going to be gone, plus that and the local elections in May 2025 when Liebour will get a drumming. Even his own MP's have had enough of the mess they've made of things in the first three months of being in power. They had fourteen years to plan for this, what a mess they've created so quickly, couldn't plan there way out of a paper bag.   Suggest you do the sums, the minimum wage won't  be so minimum when it is introduced, that and the increase in employers national insurance contributions is why so many employers are talking about reducing their cohort of employees and closing shops and businesses.  Businesses don't run at a loss and when they do they close, its the only option for them, you can only absorb a loss for so long before brining the shutters down and closing the doors. Some people are so blinkered they think the sun shines out of the three stooges, you need to wake up soon. Because wait till there are food shortages, no bread or fresh vegetables, nor meat in the shops, bare shelves in the supermarkets because the farmers will make it happen, plus prices spiralling out of control as a result of a supply and demand market. Every ones going to get on the gravy train and put their prices up, It happened before during lockdown, nothing to stop it happening again. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you. Then you'll see people getting angry and an uprising start to happen.  Hungry people become angry people very quickly. 
    • Eh? Straight ahead of what?  If you turn left at Goose Green, as you also posted above, you end up at the library. Then the Grove. Then, unless you turn right at the South Circular, you end up at Forest Hill!
    • yes I’ve spotted this too — it’s near me and I’m very intrigued to see what it’ll be 👀👀👀👀
