Just make her read the instuctions first then these are the basic rules to the game. When the tama goes to sleep turn off the light. When the tama is crying, praise it. When the tama has a heart thats white, feed or play with it. When a tama has a scull on top of its head cure it with medicene. When the tama has poop clean it with the toilet icon. Hmmm I think thats all the basic rules.
