this game is good for kids who need help with:

Flexibility

Adapting and adjusting to changing conditions and expectations.

Mario Party 9 is packed full of different mini-games, requiring players to shift their appraoch to gameplay frequently throughout. By landing on a mini-game square, each player will compete in either a free-for-all, team, or 3-on-1 game. One game might have all players imputing specific button combinations to skip rope the fastest, while another will have them working together to jump and squash a giant enemy centipede -- with each game using a different control scheme. To place first frequently, players need to be able to master various forms of play, utilizing both the game's motion controls and standard set of analog buttons.

Working Memory:

Recalling and retaining information in our minds while working.

Mario Party 9 allows players to replay specific mini-games in a separate practice mode. Here, they can take the time to learn the various controls and mechanics of each game. That way, they can recall which methods and strategies worked best when the mini-game is encountered during regular play mode. Recalling this information quickly and accurately, then putting it to immediate use, can easily help players gain the upper hand needed to net more stars and move into first place.
