Play with Some Pets

If you prefer to buy something for the kids that isn’t going to rot their teeth, but keep them occupied for a couple of hours or so, then Cats & Dogs: Pets at Play could be just the Easter gift you’re looking for and there’s less chocolatey tin foil stuck to furniture to clean up afterwards.

Blurb and features:
Animal fans will be able to choose from an amazing selection of cats and dogs, which come alive in full 3D using the Nintendo 3DS’ augmented reality technology. The aim of the game is to take care of your virtual pet , ensuring that you create a bond with them through playing and teaching them tricks. Once trained, owners will be able to enter them into sport competitions and use their winnings to buy their favourite pets treats and accessories.
