How long would this survive in a 4 year old preschool?

I think it is pretty sturdy, definitly stronger than a lot of the cheapo plastic stuff out there. The doll family may get tattered, but the furniture and house pieces are well made and should last several years. There are some pretty small pieces that could get lost.

I think it would do great! I find it to be well built and 4 year olds typically know how to treat things nicely. If it gets involved in an occasional temper tantrum, I think it will hold up just fine.

My granddaughter has had hers for a year and 4 months. It is in good condition. My daughter had to save it from abuse by a one year old for several months. My grandson wanted to climb on it. Lol

I use it in my 3 and 4 year old preschool classroom. It would be ideal for a Pre-K, Kindergarten or first grade room. You must put in a code for each slide so my 3's find that difficult, but they learn how to do it. You are limited to a finite number of slides and they are insects. You cannot use other slides with it, so a real microscope would be best for older kids.

It's plastic and as long as your child doesn't go out of their way to destroy it, it'll last a long time.

It is great for small spaces. That's the reason I requested this kitchen for my PreK 4 classroom. However, it seems the height is more suitable for a 2-3 yr old child.

My 4 year old fits in it well and should for several more years. She and her brother who is 1 play in it together. I think two 4 yr olds would be pretty crowded.

Yes it would be okay for 3-4 year old. My one year old likes it but doesn't understand the concept of it yet.

2 is a bit young. There are lots of tiny pieces for the school and people. Better for 4-7 years.

No, not at all. My 2 1/2 year old granddaughter manages it okay, but still has room to grow with it. It should be perfect for a 3-4 yr old. It's really nicely constructed, also.

We've had ours for 4months. We use it every day and are very pleased with it.

We have had it for about a year, with the exception of the adhesive on the plastic strips that cover some screws coming off, it is doing very well. Our 9 & 4 year olds use it a lot.

3-4 year olds can easily do it if they watch an adult show them how to put a closed end over the open end and visa versa. That is what makes this toy so incredible. It teaches the child to think and plan. I used it 25 years in a special needs preschool.

the manufacturer says 18 months to 4 years, we bought it for our two and half year old granddaughter and she loves it. At that age they are learning and this is great for them.

I don't think so, unless you have a very big room. I also don't think it's much of a challenge for a four year old. I bought this for my 4 year old twin grandchildren and they barely used it.

I bought it for my two year-old last year (she's now three and a half), and she still loves it. Perfect for a four year-old, I think. Some of the doors are a little stiff at first, but if my three year-old can open them, a four year-old should have no problem.

My only concern would be that there are a lot of small pieces that could be choke hazards. My four year old nephew plays with appropriately because he also knows to clean in up and keep it all together so pieces don't get lost or destroyed.

It usually lasts about 4-5 months...there are only two of us in this house though, so it may not last as long with more people.

I have a 3 & 1/2 years old daughter and she sets comfortably on it. yet i believe it can suits her up to 4 years old.
