So, somehow my daughter has become quite the little gamer, I started her off on kinectimals for the 360 and a dora the explorer game on the Wii, and she managed to complete both several times mostly on her own, she pretty much plows through things like angry birds on IOS and web-games aimed at her age bracket, so I was hoping I might find some suggestions of games I can look into in time for her upcoming 4th birthday >.>
Any suggestions with animals (especially cats / big cats / leopards) or in general educational will be thankfully recieved :) (she's currently plowing through world of zoo on the misses' laptop)

Animal Crossing is pretty darn good.

Hmmm...games for kids...I think I'm probably not the one to talk about this stuff.  *wanders away*

For PC games, try Kitten Sanctuary and the sequel Puppy Sanctuary.  It's a hybrid match 3 game (although a very easy one) and a pet simulator.  Or as I usually describe it, pure cuteness in video game form.

If you have a tablet of any kind, my 3 year old niece love Doctor Panda, where you cure cute cartoon animals by playing various simply mini games.

I used to play things from Humongous as a kid. They re-released some for the Ipod/Ipad as well as some for download on the pc. I enjoyed them. Especially Pajama Sam: No Need to Hide When its Dark Outside. That and Spy Fox: Dry Cereal.

thanks for the suggestions guys, I'll be looking into trying her out with kitten sanctuary, she's not really into dogs but if she does well with the kittens we'll try the puppy one.
I haven't heard of this humongous games company, I'll have to look into them :)

Kitten Sanctuary has a pretty sizable free demo for the PC that should be good for a few hours, so if she doesn't like it, no worries.  Sorry I didn't mention that before.
