Do you think it would be good for an 11 year old girl? Or is she too old?

I would get something a little more complex. This is really just a glorified magnifying glass. I got it for my son when he had just turned 3 and it was great for just looking at stuff in the yard close up. It doesn't show cells or anything like that.

I think that your 11 year old is too mature for this I-Scope. My 6 & 8 year old grandchildren became bored with it in a relatively short amount of time, I am sorry too say. I think that the DS games and I-Pads have changed their way of processing to a much faster pace than this item gives. Thank you for the inquiry and I hope I have helped.

Hello, I think she will love it! I'm 66yrs old and enjoyed looking at everything we could find. The Scope is worth every penny. However a serious biology student would prefer a more suitable product. Used for amusement this microscope is perfect.

I am 26 and spent over an hour with it when I gifted it to my nephew... I also have a degree in biology and have spent plenty of time with my eyes glued to very costly microscopes. It's a great toy. An 11 year old would have no problem using this and could easily find objects to observe closely. Even without slides it is awesome! She is definitely not too old to appreciate this microscope.

I believe that it is a high quality microscope so it should be good for her to grow with. Ours didn't come with glass slides so we bought some but our 9-year old also puts items on the removeable disk insert on the scope base.

Though the intended audience is likely collectors and older fans I think it would be a great gift for an 11 year old. It's sturdy and incredibly poseable. Though the joints will dislocate if over extended since they are just ball and socket joints they can just be pushed back into place so it would be a tough toy to actually break. Hope this helps.

no it would not be suitable for a 10 year old. it appears larger online then it actually is. and it's to bad because it is well made but much to small. it was to small at the time I ordered it for my 5 & 7 year old granddaughters and it was returned.

This one was given to my 14 year old son, but his 12 year old and 9 year sisters steal it from him all the time to try to play it. I think the Space Challenge Maze would be fine for an 11 year old.

I do think that it is fine for an 11yr old.no matter what age as long as they like monster high they will love the Gigi doll & all the rest of them.to me monster high is the new & updated barbie.

Yes but it the skill level is low. I would say it would be good for a kid 11 or older.

I think this is would be too small for an 11yr old. My boys are 6 and 8 and love it but my 8 yr old is close to outgrowing. Sorry!!! Hopefully there is a next size up Bc this is a GREAT gift!

My daughter got it for her 5th birthday and it was about the perfect age. I wouldn't do it for much younger, some of the functions were a little tricky and a younger child might just be frustrated. But I can see my daughter playing with it for awhile, but she LOVES horses!! :)

I think it might be a bit small for an eleven year old. I bought it for my 6 year old grandson and it was perfect for him. I would say the age would be up to 8 years old.

Yes, it is. My daughter is 8 so she needs help but an 11 years old should be fine

My granddaughter is 18 months old and very long. I'm not sure it would be a good choice for your needs.

I didn't see the instructions, but the pieces are not too tiny and if the 11 year old is adept or especially if there will be an adult to help with the gluing, then I think it would be fine. It isn't like some models with hundreds of tiny little parts.

yes, good for an 11 year old. If it was for me I'd spend a little more for better quality.

It would be perfect. That's what we are using it for (my daughter is 7), you will like it

Probably. My 4 yr old wanted it, but I think she was too old for it. For one she was as tall as a 6 yr old and the height is made for maybe a 3 yr old without bending over. It'd be better for a 2 yr old with the limited outfit changes that don't keep the attention of older kids.

My son is 8 and its perfect height for him. But also it extends too. (So I can use it also, lol) Its a good little detector, I'd say it'd be good for an 11 year old. If its his/her first one I'd say this one for sure. Hope that helps!

I'm not sure for an 11 year old. I bought them for my 9 year old granddaughter who specifically asked for them for her birthday. I also am sending to my 7 year old granddaughter. If the 11 year old is into the hair things I would say yes, but if she's not, then I would think something else. The 9 year old granddaughter has a 12 year old sister, who is not into the hair things and she wanted a American girl doll for her birthday, so that's what I got her. Hope this helps.
