We have a 7 year old just starting. Should we get the 12 inch or the 6 inch size? Related: Is one size better for "expanding" his practice set later?

I Think 12 inch should be good. will be much comfortable and able to move his hand freely.

I have the small size and it works just fine. As for the 7 year old, I would suggest easing into it and seeing if the interest is sincere, if so, then advance. You are wise starting with a practice pad. I started with a set of sticks. After first trying piano and guitar, I found that drums were my instrument.

The 12 " size is useful if you want to mount it in a snare drum stand,(as I do) and is more stable on a regular surface due only to it's size, but both sizes feel very much like a real snare drum, the only other advantage of the smaller one would be portability and slightly lower price.

I played the 6 inch for years and just recently got the 12 inch. The 12 inch is much more convenient as it sits in your lap better, works well with a typical snare stand, and just offers more area to play on. The only benefit I can see with the 6 inch is that it's easier to travel with.

My daughter just turned 4 and is about 39 1/2 in tall. with the twelve she could put both feet on the ground and with no training wheels to start she looked more comfortable. I look at it like trading one for the other she fit the 14 a little better but more balance and control starting and stopping on the 12 which I think is more important. I would go 12 especially if you have younger kids. We have a younger daughter so if she only gets one year out of it no big deal

I recommend the a smaller sized RipStik for an 8 year old beginner. I would go with the mini

My kid is 8... but he is rather tall. The trainer chose 25 -inch racket so that he could use later. I think the same size would be just fine.

I would definitely go with the 7'x7' net. perfect size for both pitching and hitting. It's still small enough that it can be setup in basement or garage as well.hope this helps:regards,dino

I was looking for similar information. You would want the 25" which is for ages 8-10 and great for those just starting out. This is per www.tennis-warehouse.com

I think he could grow into them, I would say at 5' 1" at 12 he'll be growing the next few years. Now if he hasn't golfed, sometimes a junior set, less expensive, would work better because they are shorter and easier to control. I'm 5' 9" and from the time we were able to swing a club we had my dad's hand-me-downs, and they worked fine.

If you child plays on a team . I would get 12x6, as the soccer goals used in games are actually 15 feet long. So this size will get them used to it.Also gives you room for child to grow into it.

It depends on the size you get it comes in various inches. but they do have them for 5 and 6 year old's you may want to get the 16 inch instead.

Both the 7 year old and 10 year old can use a 1/2 half sized violin. If your 7 ear old is on the smaller size, you may want to get hima 1/4 sized violin, but it's very likely he will quickly out grow the 1/4 sized violin.

You need to order the Easton Black Magic Junior Sku 58831 AE. Also, the black set is the only 6-8 size, the red and royal blue only start at 9-12 age/size. I've used both, both and very good sets.

Yes, actually my son is 9 years old. But it was first time take a tennis class. A friend of mine's kid just bought it . She is 7 years old.( practice over year) If your kid is beginner for tennis, I suggested buy one small size.

my son is 11 & the thinks this board is very large. When I did my research, they suggested this size for kids just above his size/weight/age. I chose it because the site suggested you go up if you are straddling areas. My son is a beginning beginner too. I suggest a size down for your son unless he's really tall. (My son is 4'9"). As far as the street goes - I've had no complaints from him but he's still learning (just got his in April). Good luck :)

Hi If he is pre growth spurt The length is perfect. As for the guitar itself, they are pretty nice. Way Way better than what I started with. I think if you do a little research on the web, the guitar will play very well just by turning a screw or two, And the child will always treasure it. He will learn on it, then absolutely have to switch to a full size. Do not let him sell or trade the first guitar. It does become like your first woman, and he will go back to it at the oddest times!!!

I would definitely recommend going with the 24ft, maybe even bigger if you can. The 24ft is still less than a foot between each child if 25 children will be using this, and it might get squishy.

They should be the perfect size for them. Start out with one set as with 2 irons and a putter they can learn to share. Our 5 grandsons (at the time) were all 3+ and under. Loads of laughs and fun for all.....except for chasing the balls around or finding them in the leaves. Enjoy.

I would get the 12by 6 if space permits. I bought 2 of the 8 by 6 for my 8 & 5 year old grandsons but as they grow I will replace with the larger goals..Tom D
