Summary

The software contains a collection of children's minigames based on the Disney animated movie Beauty and the Beast,[1] involving Belle and her friends throwing a party for Beast.[2]

Development

This and Disney’s The Little Mermaid II: Return to the Sea were designed to "combine girls’ creative interests with their natural play patterns".[3]
