Dress Up Who Games

Playing dressing up games online are a lot of fun for girls of all ages. From the moment a little girl is old enough to put on her own clothes, she is experimenting with fashion. I remember sorting through my grandmother's old hat box to find shiny things to wear when I was a little girl, and now my daughter does the same thing.

Girls love to play "pretend", whether they pretend to be a "beautiful princess" or an "airplane driver". This urge to dress up and enjoy fun clothing and accessories never goes away.

When I was little I would play with paper dolls, Barbie dolls, or play dress up myself. It was a great time. Kids today still do that, but they also have the option to play dress up games online. I freely admit that I play them too. It is so much fun!

In this page, I am going to explain a little more about dress up games, review one of the top sites, Dress Up Who Games, and recommend some of the games. I am also going to share my dressed up dolls!

All the images in this page are screen shots of my completed games, or the downloads made available by the game site.

What are dress up games exactly?

Dress Up Who Fashion Games

Dress Up Fashion GamesDressing up games are an application that can be played online. It is played on the website. No downloads are necessary. Each game centers around a theme or concept. If a the goal is to dress up a princess, then the game typically starts with a girl in bathing suit like attire. There is usually a selection of hair styles, hair colors, clothes, shoes, hats, hair pieces, jewelry, and sometimes skin and make up colors. Some of the characters are very cartoon like and some are quite realistic.

Some dressing up games involve dragging and dropping the clothes and accessories into place, while others you click to cycle through the options. I prefer the first way, but if you are playing on a mobile device with a touch screen, the second way is the easiest and most practical.

The end result of the game could be a static image, or an animated scene. On the final page, the game usually gives you the option to Replay, go to the game website, print, and save. The dress up game website is credited on the front of the picture so anyone viewing it knows where the game was played.

What ages are dressing up games appropriate for?

DressUp Who

Dress Up PetsYou could probably a variety of answers on this question. The reason for this is the clothes. Some of the dressing up games involve very glamorous clothing or beach type clothing that is very figure hugging. Some of the pieces are shaded to maximize curves and look sexy.

Since it is a mixed bag, I think if my daughter was about eight and wanted to play I would sit with her. This would be a good chance for us to talk about appropriate clothing. Depending on her level of interest and maturity, I would let her be more independent as time went on.

I am sure a lot of people would say that is overkill, while some would agree, and some would think it wasn't strict enough. I suggest that if your child is under the age of 12 and is interested in these type of games, you should check them out yourself and do what seems best to you.

There are also dressup who cooking games that focus on food creations which could be played by anyone. Another popular category is dress up pets. It is exactly what it sounds like. Cooking and pets are both good choices for younger children.
