Excellent choice for my 4-year-old nephew

My nephew just turned four, and has been developing his computer skills for several months now. I like having him play this game for several reasons:

1. Although he can't pass many levels on his own (too slow to get the required number of customers), the customers don't get angry so fast that they walk out on him, which would be the case with more fast-paced games such as Turbo Subs. (Since young kids need more time to analyze and do things, I hope in future games like this will have a "kid mode" for the very young.)

2. Because he has to pick colors and designs based on the expression of the customer (what makes him/her happy), he's learning to judge expressions and thus developing much-needed empathy skills.

3. The interface is fairly straightforward, is entirely mouse-driven, requires no reading, and flips between point-and-click and click-and-drag, so it's great for developing his skill with the trackball.

All in all, as much as I already enjoy this game, I have to say it's one of the best games for a young computer user who needs to work on his mouse skills and develop his ability to read expressions. Bravissimo!

Sally's Salon

This was a good game I thought. The graphics are great. The sound is great and you must have a quick finger to win this one.
The thing I disliked the most was having to chose colors, cuts, nail polish color and many other things by scrolling through a menu. When you are in a rush you scroll right past the option you need and have to backup.

A Gorgeuos Glamourous Game

When I first saw the description, I thought it's going to be one of those Girlie Girl games which I can't play, when I saw the screenshots, I thought it's built on the Diner Dash theme, and since I am a big fan of games like Cake Mania and Diner Dash (the most recent, Turbo Pizza), I downloaded Sally's Salon. But I when I actually played the game itself, my view was totally changed, it is completely awesome, with cute graphics and interactive actions, and by interactive, I actually mean interactive. I really never thought that in these type of games, we can modify the outcome, in this game, it's selecting Hairstyles.

The gameplay is really tremendous, I really laughed when the Oldie Aunt asked for a Pink dye, graphics are beautifully done, sound is just the right level for a theme like this, and overall, The game is completely awesome. Recommended just for anyone with a liking to fast-clicking action... (I'm gonna buy it just now)
