Im a newbie, My 11 year old daughter got a tamagotchi for her birthday...So I went and bought one for myself so that her tama and my tama could connect. So far its kinda like a competition between us. Shes killed hers a couple of times trying to figure it out. I havent killed mine yet... We try to see who can grow up faster and who can get the most training bars! I just turned 29 and i have 3 children..and im a stay at home mom. But sometimes still feel like a kid... If anyone has any tips they would like to share, please leave a post... Thanks!
