Is this appropriate for a five-year-old with adult supervision?

Hello Patricia, instructions manual states that it's for older than 14 year old kids, but most little kids, even some toddlers, are able to fly RC helicopters easily. It just takes practice. This particular helicopter flies faster and is stronger. So, adult supervision is suggested as you stated. Hope this helps!

yes this is safe for a 5 year old. If your five year old can ride a bike he should not have a problem with this scooter . This is a good fun toy. Not a great means of transportation. My son age 10 could not keep up on our bike rides.

It would probably be most appropriate for 4-5 year olds. I bought it for my 6 year old son and he was done with it in about 20 minutes.

Yes! I bought this when my daughter was 4 and she is now 5 and it is holding up very well with her. Also an adult as well!

Hi as long as he has adult supervision and u don't but the original tools it is perfect, my nephew was 5 when he got his and loves it.

I don't think a five year old would have the motor skills to fly this. This is probably not a good toy for anyone under the age of 8-10.

No, it would be frustrating and could not be handled by a five year old. This is something for someone much older. Wait about 12-13 years.

I think it should work well for him with adult supervision. I gave this to my grandson when he was 6.

Yes, I would say that the weight would be OK for a five year old; It's pretty light. However, there are three settings, and an on/off switch on the other side of the device. I'm not sure a five year old would be able to operate the thing--unless someone spent time showing them how.

There are different levels of difficulty. I would say it may be a challenge for the 5 year old. My 4 year old likes playing with it even though he can't get from start to finish but he is still having fun. Definitely fun for older kids and parents/grandparents. It does develop good eye-hand coordination, requires concentration and patience. I love it myself.

I'm probably not a good person to ask as I let my grandkids use this and other tools as long as I'm watching. Being outside and using this blower or hammering on a nail or picking up pecans is better than them sitting in front of a TV or computer. In short, yes I think it would be ok for a 4 year old to use with supervision.

I think it would certainly be appropriate. The game moves up in complexity as the child grasps the more basic concepts. I have a 6.5 year old daughter who enjoys this game very much and finds it challenging enough not to be boring.

I bought one for my 13 year old and she has no problem with using it. I would say a 5 year old might need supervision mainly on preparation of the cupcakes. The inside of the cupcake maker does get hot so taking them out your 5 year old might need assistance.

it may be too advanced for a 5 year old but it still may be fun for them to try. This game is challenging even for an adult, but sometimes kids surprise us with what they can do that we cant.

I actually used it (supervised at first, of course) when my son was 10 months old. He started to understand how it worked overtime. He is 14 months now and does great on his own. I think the warning should be thought of as a suggestion in this case. Just make sure to look for small parts, but in this box the smallest part was about the size of a bouncy ball , so it wasn't too bad.

It really depends on their fine motor skills. The pieces quickly snap together with a click & the potential is high for a pinched finger if the child is holding the pieces too closely where the pieces go together. However, it is a very fun toy and its great to develop creative thinking and hand dexterity. If the child is able to play with an adult to get the hang of how to build with these & learns where to hold them to connect them then, it would be completely suitable for an under 5 child. I hope this helps!

It would probably be too small for a 5 year old. Our granddaughter started using it at 18 months old.
