I decided not to do myself but rather give it to my 9 yo daughter and see what happened. She could not wait, checked the mail every day and when the beta opened up went in immediately. I did not help at all, except for the parental confirmation email of course. Her self discovery seems to go fine and smooth, and the notion you need some currency to buy stuff was discovered by her before I noticed. The interface seems intuitive to her and from her reactions while playing I really see she enjoys it and is getting "attached" to her monster. Intriguing how easy and fast that went... As Roo mentioned, it will be really interesting to see how things go when the social interaction kicks in. At the virtual worlds forum in London I was given an MoPod as to participate in the Beta.
