MY THOUGHTS:

I absolutely love this game! I have tried other Just Dance and similar games before and they are a little hard but Smurfs Dance Party is not only fun but doable! Now don’t get me wrong, some of the moves are hard to do and keep up with, but overall the game is easy enough for me and my boys (3 and 4 years old) to dance to! We had a blast! You just need to hold the Wii mote in your hand (no nunchuk) and follow the moves, it will even vibrate if you are doing the moves perfectly! I actually could dance everyday to this game if time allowed! The music includes both popular and classic songs all with instruction of the smurfs. Some of the songs are even Smurfed, for example “Who let the Smurfs Out?” and “We Like to Smurf It!” There is even songs with Gargamel dancing who made my boys laugh hysterically. This is a great family game for kids of all ages and their parents. It is also great for friends to get together to play (maybe even after a few drinks!) It gets everyone up and moving, laughing and singing along!

BUY IT: Look for “The Smurfs Dance Party” wherever video games are sold or check it out online.
