How small are the pieces? Not sure whether the actual tracks &amp; trains would be choking hazards for a 19-mo old - we wouldn't use the other pieces.

As long as a wheel didn't pop off or something I would consider the whole set not a choking hazard.

Some of the pieces are very tiny. I would not give it to a child that young.

I bought it for my 3 year old and he has no problem. All pieces with the exception of a couple can be swallowed (ladder inside deck & support for flying plane) if you are concerned about choke hazard simply remove those two pieces and should be fine. I removed the two pieces and my one year old ustedes the carrier a lot. It has also been a big hit with my 3 year old.

They don't fit the tracks, but the trains fit vice versa. We took a Thomas train and put it on the toy state track. They are plastic tracks.

I am really not sure. We had gotten this train set for our 11 year old last Christmas, and it proved to be something for someone much older who could really put train together and maybe leave set up as a hobby room. It is a beautiful set, but if something is unlevel, it comes off track easily, so we had to just put the set away. I suggest you call the manufacturer about your particular question. Again, it is a very lovely (if you can describe a train set in that manner) train set, and if the answer is yes to your question from someone who knows, I think it would be something an adult would really enjoy. hope this helps you!

Some of the pieces are a bit on the small side and the manufacturer states not younger than 4 years old. It was a great present for a 3 year old, but her 1 year old brother would have to be monitored at all times when in the "block room". I would hate to say 100% safe for a 7 mos. old. Sorry.

No small pieces. I bought it for my son who's 17 months. He likes to play transport truck driver.

My son is 2 1/2 years old and has no issues with pushing the button to release the cars or with knowing how the cars go down the tracks. I would say any child 2 y/o and beyond will be able to enjoy it. the product is surely safe for the recommended 18 months and beyond. Just keep in mind that those that are younger then 18 months will more then likely have vertical stability issues as they are still learning how to keep upright while performing other tasks that require many adjustments to their positions.

This set would be pretty small to be used alone. These plastic ones do not seem to be as easy to find if you wanted to add some more tracks. We have plastic ones that I wanted to add to, but these have different sized connectors so we had to return them. The wooden ones are very common. I would suggest buying wooden track set that can easily be added to. MRM

As with all toys that have potentially removable parts (i.e. wheels, magnets, tops, etc.) I'm sure these are not recommended for children under 3. I bought them for my almost-4-year-old grandson. That said, his 1-year-old little brother insists on playing with anything big brother has, so, under supervision, both boys played together nicely with the train set. The pieces are painted wood, so shouldn't be chewed on, of course.

I bought this for my grandson a few years ago and he has loved it- still plays with it. I don't think the pieces it comes with are small enough to choke on. There's little garbage cans but I think they are too big to put in their mouth.

Two and up should be fine. The pieces fit together easily and the train is a good size for small hands. Good motor skill practice.

The cars are huge and it's not enough track for a train that large. Either order more track or don't get it. Ours won't stay on the track when it goes around the short turns.

I actually bought it for my 2 year old son at Christmas. The smallest piece in the set is the yellow flag at the top of the castle that is removable. We didn't have any issues with the parts being too small.

My daughter started playing with these toys at 18mos. I'm think the Amazon over 3 thing is an error he box says 2 and up and I don't see how any of them are a choking hazard but I always supervise my daughter with them just because she isn't yet 2

My 12 month old has had this puzzle for a few months. The pieces are not small enough for her to swallow. She places the circles on the puzzle by herself now, but not the other shapes yet. At this age all toys have to be supervised and many require an adult play partner. It's one of those toys that kids can grow into. Please note that only the beginner puzzle has big shapes that are not a choking hazard. The Melissa & Doug puzzles that don't say beginner have much smaller pieces that could definitely be an issue for a 12 month old.
