Toys and Games Reviews of Wild Planet Mickey's Mouse-ke-TAGCustomer Review: Great game for preschoolers Summary: 4 Stars
My 3 year old daughter and I like to play this game together. I'm not sure how well this game would work without an adult helping, so I don't think it's something you could expect a bunch of preschoolers to play with on their own. It is fun and helps kids to learn to follow instructions, to do things in the right order, etc. My daughter and I especially enjoy playing hide and seek with the characters. We take turns hiding them in a room and then the other person goes around and finds them (in the order that the game specifies). One good thing for toddlers is that the clubhouse is the part that gives the instructions, so there is no reading required - just good listening skills!
One downside to this game is that the characters come with these little green pieces that they attach to. The green pieces help to make them more stable, but they are made to come off (not sure why, other than maybe for storage). So sometimes when you lower the clubhouse over them (as instructed in the game), the green piece separates from the character and you have to stop and put them back together. Not a huge deal, but a little annoying. The only other thing I worry about is how tough the clubhouse is. It is an essential part of the game, so I worry about my daughter dropping it on our hardwood. Without that piece, the game would be worthless. So I guess if you've got a rowdy bunch, try to play on carpet.
This game is a fun game for kids of all ages, and we got a good deal on it last year. I'm quite glad we bought it, as I imagine it will be a game she can play with her older cousins as well.
Description of Wild Planet Mickey's Mouse-ke-TAG The Wild Planet Mickey's Mouse-ke-TAG puts a modern spin on the classic game of tag. Providing physical exercise while promoting social and cognitive skills, one to six players can play Mouse-ke-TAG. Each of the four levels of Mouse-ke-TAG help children develop a different skill, from basic character recognition to learning letters so it is appropriate for a wide range of ages from three and up. Mickey's Mouse-ke-TAG also comes with two bonus games, Treasure Hunt and Memory Mouse-ke-TAG, for additional playtime.
Realistic Disney Character Pieces:
The colorful Mouse-ke-TAG parts and detailed pieces will interest children right out of the box. The lightweight, easy-to-hold Clubhouse tagger is shaped like Mickey Mouse. Its durable frame features easy-to-push buttons on the front for turning it on/off and choosing games and levels. The four Mouse-ke-friends, Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, and Donald Duck, fit firmly into each base and stand up well. The four friends each have fun, colorful details with an engaging expression.
The game does contain small parts and is a choking hazard for infants so it's not appropriate for children under the age of three. The battery compartment is safely secured with a screw. The speakers are located in the front for very good sound quality.
Advice for parents: you will need a small Phillips head screwdriver to insert the "AA" batteries. Be sure to follow the directions for battery ribbon placement in order to easily replace old batteries with new ones.
Simultaneous Learning and Physical Exercise It's easy to set up the Mouse-ke-TAG game; simply spread out the Mouse-ke-friends and place them upright on their bases. The Clubhouse tagger calls out different clues depending on the level setting and the player runs to "tag" the correct Mouse-ke-friend by placing the tagger over it.

Simultaneous Learning and Physical Exercise It's easy to set up the Mouse-ke-TAG game; simply spread out the Mouse-ke-friends and place them upright on their bases. The Clubhouse tagger calls out different clues depending on the level setting and the player runs to "tag" the correct Mouse-ke-friend by placing the tagger over it. Children can play Mouse-ke-TAG individually and try to beat their own time or play as a team of up to six players. You can place the Mouse-ke-friends as far apart as you'd like; it's an excellent way to provide some physical exercise, even indoors. Each level promotes a different learning skill: name recognition, learning colors and letters, and recognizing descriptions. All levels develop listening skills and hand-eye coordination, while the group game promotes teamwork, sharing, and turn-taking. Disney Character Voices Brought to Life Goofy, the narrator for the Clubhouse tagger, is friendly and appealing, while the voices of Minnie Mouse, Mickey Mouse, and Donald Duck are true-to-character. Kids already familiar with Disney characters will enjoy this realistic detail. Goofy instructs the player on choosing games and levels so it's very straightforward for children to start a game on their own. The only drawback: there is only one volume setting for the Clubhouse tagger. However, the sound quality is very good and the characters are easy to understand. Two Bonus Games for Additional Fun A Treasure Hunt game and Memory Mouse-ke-TAG are included with the game and provide added entertainment. The Treasure Hunt game is a modern twist on Hide-and-Seek. One player hides the Mouse-ke-friends and as Goofy's voice calls out a Mouse-ke-friend, the second player explores the area to find the hidden piece. Goofy lets the child know how long it took to tag all four friends. The treasure hunt game helps teach social skills like sharing, and promotes physical activity. Memory Mouse-ke-TAG promotes basic memory and listening skills by asking the player to recall the sequence of Mouse-ke-friends that the Clubhouse tagger calls out. Level one is simply the Mouse-ke-friends names. Each level after one adds something new to remember, such as the Mouse-ke-friend's voice, details of their clothes, and letters in their name. You child can play this bonus game individually making it a good travel game. What's in the Box One Mouse-ke-TAG Clubhouse tagger, four Mouse-ke-friends (Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck, and Goofy), four base stands, instruction sheet.
