Would these be appropriate for a 5 year old? Or would a 5 year old be too old for this toy?

I have twin 5 year olds (boy/girl) and they still love them. I got them when they were 2 and still bring them out on rainy days and they have so much fun building castles with them.

I think he or she would love them. My kids and now grandchildren love these. One of the best toys we ever gave them.

We have cardboard blocks that I bought for my older children (probably 20 years ago), and now my younger two (ages 5 and 7) are playing with them - they ALL love these blocks! I'm looking to buy another set for my younger two, so they can make BIGGER castles :)

No, this item is meant for very young children. I would say up to 5 years old.

I would say yes they are a great item for that age group just be sure to order an extra or two one of ours broke with in min or had a hole in it from the begining, but we still have a few around the house that have been going strong for a few months now so I think it may have just been a fluke with that one but be sure to have an extra one or two just in case as preschoolers are not going to understand it if they got the one in a hundred that is junk and there is no replacement.

The product is for 5 and up. I think 3 may be a little too young -- depending on the child I think. These are a different material than legos. And are definitely more "delicate". Hope that helps!

Well my youngest is 1.5 yr and she plays with them in the tub. They are soft so when she was a little younger and teething more, she would try to chew on them. I would say they're good for pretty much any age. They're too big to swallow so as long as a younger child doesn't chew on them and rip off a small piece, there is no choking danger.

The box states ages 2-5 and I believe that is appropriate. I got this for my almost 2 year old grandson but his big sister, 4 1/2, also likes to play with them.

I don't think they are too young for a 6 year old. My son is almost 4 1/2 and really enjoys them.

They are appropriate for older children. My daughter is 4 and we split them in half for her.

Hi there, I bought this set for my boys, who were 5 & 7 at the time of the purchase and they like it a lot. They had it in their day care center in Pre-K, where the kids are 4 & 5. I have a 4-year-old girl now who I do not see building anything with the set but plays with it once the brothers built something already, so I do not know what to answer for a 4 years old. Maybe yes for boys if he is able to focus and follow instructions in the booklet. I would recommend it more though for a 5-years-old boy. Hope this helps! Irina

I bought this for my granddaughter who turned two. The toys are soft and cuddly.I would think any child up to five years of age would like this toy.Like any toy it's up to the parent to use parental guidess.

My child is 5 and really enjoys playing with it. I think you could go as young as 3. None of the parts are too small to really worry about a choking hazard.

Most definitely. I would think that's the perfect age. I have two and my granddaughter is only 16 months. Hardly old enough to hand them to her as a toy. But she giggles at them when I hold her on my lap and we play with them. She definitely has it figured out how to feed the little guys!EDITED: to say: After reading the comment left by CandaceMacan24 , I may agree that 5 and above may even be a better age group than 4 - she makes some good points. Depends on the kid. As a side note, My 16 month old GD isn't scared by it.

I would definitely avoid this toy with a 5 year old. The ball is about as heavy as a billiard ball in pool. And you have to swing it around on a string about the same length as a child's arm. So, there is a good chance your child would be knocked in the head. They could easily knock out teeth or damage something if they started swinging this thing around too vigorously.

They are a bigger Lego. Definitely more appropriate for younger. Mine is age 3-4 yrs.

I have a child care in my home and all my kids play with these. I'd say ages 1 through 5 would love to use these!

I think they can...my 4 year old Grandson likes to rock on it so I so not think that a 5 year old could too!
