Zumba Kids

Zumba Kids is a dancing/fitness game, so it doesn't feature a storyline. Instead, it takes kids through 30 different dance routines designed to function as a workout. To play the game, kids (and adults if they so choose) are prompted to mimic the moves of onscreen avatars, a mechanic those who have played any of the Just Dance games will be familiar with. Since the game is directed at a young audience, all dance moves are kid-friendly and not sexualized. Similarly, the lyrics to the songs featured are family appropriate.

The difficulty level is low, which is exactly how the game was intended. Younger kids shouldn't have a problem playing, and in fact should find the dance moves simple enough to have fun.
