Dinsun Review
Dinsun here. The Baby Hazel library has been around the block for over a decade, and Kitchen Fun doesn't try to change the blueprint. This is a very simple, linear point-and-click sequencing puzzle for young children. You find the bowl, grab the milk, click the spoon, stir it up. It does teach basic object recognition and procedural ordering to small kids, which has some early developmental merit. However, the graphics look highly dated by modern standards, the flash-style structural animations feel incredibly clunky, and the audio prompts get grating fast. It operates well enough as an old-school digital activity box, but contemporary options run circles around its archaic structure.
