Good 3DS/2DS games for children

[Resi]

Does anyone know any good games for a young girl? I was hoping to get my little sister a 3DS for Christmas or a birthday present, but I don't know any games she'd like on the system (and won't be wasting money if she won't use it.)
Preferably games that have animals in it, and not a lot of reading (Small, easy words are okay, but nothing like Animal Crossing.)
Thank you for your time!

May I ask how old?

She might like Nintendogs...it's not really a good game though. You take care of a dog or a cat. That's it.

She's 8 years old.

I've heard about that...Thank you!
I'll look into it

dump a bunch of eshop games onto her 3DS and have her start her descent into challenging gaming madness

She might like New Super Mario Bros. 2. It's really easy and not that complicated.

Perhaps harvest moon? It has a cute kind of appeal to it and it has alot of educational benefits like showing your child your benefits of hard work.

haha! I'm sure I could, but she tends to get frustrated easily, so hopefully she can join that soon xD

Ooo, thanks! I thought it'd be as challenging as the other games.

That sounds good...maybe I'll pick myself up a copy. I've heard it's similar to AC so I was interested. Thanks!

I'd think Tomodachi Life might be fine. There's a lot of words, but all dialogue is spoken to you, and the menus have pictures so you can understand what you're clicking on.

Yea, then again if she can get into animal crossing then she shouldn't have a problem with dialogue heavy games lol

Mmm, I think I might get a copy too. She did like creating Mii's on our Wii lol

I know she likes game like Animal crossing though, since she enjoys watching me play. (However, she usually has to ask me what I'm doing since she can't read what the animals are saying)

Well, i think kirby triple deluxe would be fine. It's really good and not too hard.

Pokemon X/Y, Kirby Triple Deluxe, Nintendogs+cats, Tomodachi Life all spring to mind. I think Pokemon is the most text heavy, but you really don't have to pay attention to it to begin with.

Okay! She's played Kirby before, so it should be a good game.

Oo, thank you! I'll keep them in mind!
