Simon Says Game
I'm not following Moxies programming for this game. It seems like she either cannot listen very well, or is deliberately choosing a way to fail which is annoying to my child and feels very patronizing to her.
Wondering why the game ends after only a few go rounds, and why does there have to be a winner?
My daughter (10) was enchanted at first that Moxie would follow her requests, but then Moxie would be asked to hoot like an owl, and she'd get it wrong, and then it seemed that Moxie would just keep getting it wrong which made the game and playing with Moxie annoying enough that I'm having trouble getting her back on.

My son thought it was hilarious that Moxie said it couldn't stop itself from doing a spin when he didn't say Simon Says and then that happened the next time he asked too, but I think the third time Moxie got it right. He liked Simon Says and has asked Moxie to play once or twice since. He is younger (just turned 7), so that might make a difference. He did get a bit frustrated asking Moxie to do things that weren't understood.
I think it is cute and motivating for him to be able to give Moxie commands and win most of the time but maybe not always. I'm not sure if Moxie gave him Simon Says commands, but that would be great for working on listening skills.0
