Educational Potential
The game revolves around the player's control of a small character (Sackboy) in a variety of scenarios. The LittleBigPlanet game gives opportunities to:
- Choose appearance of main character (costumes, accessories and colours) and play the game full of tasks and puzzles. Sackboy runs, jump, grab certain objects, push objects due to reach collective objects on the way or go through.
- Create all brand new game with puzzles, tasks and appearance of the game (ability to design, shape and build objects or entire locations) and share it others.
- Play games which was created by developer, by other users or user himself/herself.
These three modes are described simply by the title's tagline: Play. Create. Share.
The game begins with an introductory level, and then goes inside into a personal space of the player from which there is possibility to access the three modes of gameplay. Once the basics (Play mode) are mastered, the player is free to play the rest of the game.

Description of the game in PlayStation website says: starting five minutes making a simple puzzle it can easily turn into five hours designing a completely new game. That means a necessity to control the time of the young player with this game.

Learning Object / Suggested activities with students
The game can be used as a tool for creating the plot/story in Literature lesson or as the new videogame in Informatics Technologies lesson. It could be as a semester/year project (as individual task or for group task) based on the most liked read book or created story by the player. Than it can be shared with classmates to evaluate.
That would be different way to express the skills on creating the story, implementing technical solutions on creating the game, evaluating abilities and tendency of the child to develop skills on IT or story creating.
