then color scenes from the episodes they just watched.\u00a0 The initial game comes with two cartoon episodes, but you can purchase two more in Season 1 plus more coloring pages at the Nintendo eShop.<\/p>\n<p>The two cartoon episodes you start out with are about nap time and a trip to the zoo.\u00a0 But the lessons in both are just about being quiet.\u00a0 The episodes are about five minutes long or less, and while the animation does the job, it makes Peppa Pig look like a masterpiece.\u00a0 You also get a wide selection of scenes from the episodes to color.\u00a0 The paint program you use to color is pretty nice, but I do wish there was a parents guide to tell you what each color icon does.\u00a0 It\u2019s fairly easy to figure out otherwise, though.\u00a0 You can paint with the touch screen in handheld mode and an icon on the TV, but I think little kids would find it easier in handheld mode.<\/p>\n<p>My only other problem with this title is that you only get two five minute episodes and must purchase the other two.\u00a0 I don\u2019t really like how they nickel and dime you like that.\u00a0 At only five minutes each, I think all episodes should\u2019ve been included, especially since that\u2019s not much to entertain a little kid.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gamerdad.com\/blog\/preschool_screen\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"
