can kids wave it around like a real wand without it breaking it?

Yes. It is sturdy. It doesn't feel hollow and has a little bit of weight to it.

Yes, it is very sturdy. I don't think they should bang it on something repeatedly, but waving it around will never break it.

No. It's a toy replica of a science fiction device that doesn't really exist. The kids love all the noises it makes.

Yes it looks like a real wand. You have to use a little key to get the battery out because the cover for the battery screws on so tight.

If you imagine it it can I suppose. I used it for a Harry Potter party for 164 participants it was a big hit because of all the pull outs. No wands were used but I'm a mere Muggle and can't see every thing.

I believe so. Our nephew had just turned 5 and his little 4 - year old neighbor girl played with it for hours when he first got it. It's not so electronic, which was nice to see them use their imaginations.

Yes, but you will have to manually push or pull them around on it until they are old enough to scoot themselves.

It worked, my 11 year old used it as a bath toy. It didn't break , but he broke it after a couple months.

i wouldn't even try. Mine was so cheap out of the box and immediately something broke. At first I thought it was a prank, or a cracker jack prize...and when I realized this cheap toy crap was what i'd actually bought, I threw it hard into the trash. good luck on the handle.

Yes. My nephew is 4 and transforms it better than I can. He has a lot of similar toys though and knows to check how the joints are supposed to move and not to force it.

The wand itself is very secure in the box in which it comes with. The chances of it coming out are very minimal. In addition, the box that the whole product was placed into has some paper padding in it to prevent it from moving around a whole. And the wands themselves are very tough and strong. I wouldn't worry about it breaking at all.

It's not too bad. It sounds similar to a cell phone that is vibrating on a wood table. I hope that helps. I couldn't come up with a better comparison. It shouldn't bother your child.

I hold the wand with one hand and use the other to operate the lever, but it could be possible to do it all with one hand. You'd have to tuck the wand under your arm somehow.

Yes it can. Looking at this picture, if you turned the head left, it will goes until it touches the wand.

When you move the paw, it will begin waving. It will continue to wave without you. I think that there is a weight at one side that allows it to keep moving. no batteries needed. I don't recall it stopping on its own, but you can by just holding the arm still, then it will stay still. It has a soft ticking sound when it waves that helps my daughter fall asleep at night.

I would say yes. It is not a toy. It is a real drum. I bought it for a 2-3 year old which was probably a bit young but he enjoyed drumming with his hands. It has a nice sound. Also it is very colorful.

I gave it to my son who was 5 at the time. He loved playing with it (we never suspended it from the ceiling), and that propeller isn't strong enough to damage little fingers.

Hi, Howdy is soooo durable and thick blow it up until your child is comfortable sitting. It is so adorable, most small children will have lots of fun on it. In the movie Despicable Me 2 there is a pink and white one that is blown up and bounces all over. Hope this is helpful . Oh, no I don't believe they will pop. windchimes
