suitable for a 5 year old?

Yep. As long as they aren't the type of 5 year old who puts small things in their mouth. Some adult help with instructions may be helpful

No. I would not buy this item for a five-year-old. This item consists of scalding hot plates during and after use. The child could sustain mild to sever burns or other injuries if he or she should accidentally touch the plates or mishandle the appliance.

Honestly for a 5 year old I think it would be. Maybe around 8. I am not a parent myself but there is some problem solving and time management issues that may be too advanced for a 5 year old. The controls are also not very intuitive for Pikmin 3 so they may get frustrated with that.

It worked fine for my very small 5 year old. I'd go with this one, for sure, and it will last many years.

I think it would be great. Our 5 yo is shorter than average, and it's a bit big for her. She manages to ride it, but I think it will serve her to age 7 at least

We're parents, and we thought he was entertaining. My 3 year old loves him and can steer him very easily. I'd think that a 5-6 year old might want something a little more advanced, but for 2-4, this is great (and it's sturdy!)

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 it would be good for a 5 year old. We have both the original and the Junior. Our 6 year loves the junior! She could have easily played it at 5. I hope you enjoy!

this would be especially good for a five year old. we bought ours for our daughter's 9th birthday and it was frankly a bit low but it was all we could find that wasn't too high. we were lucky they had some extra poles we could add to extend ours up just a bit and it has, as a result, been perfect. it is easy to assemble and stays up without all the strings and stakes, etc...you can lower it for tennis if you want, and it is light. i highly recommend it for a five year old..

I think so. I got it for my 10 year old and it allows for setting the drum pads at any height and spacing. I'm sure it would be fine for a 5 year old. Plug it into a small practice amp or some ear buds and you're good to go.

Definitely appropriate for 5 year old, my nephew got his @ age five. Think the manufacturer is accounting for both play without anyone watching, as well as minds that are not ready yet

I checked with my 12 year old and he said the game might be too challenging for a 5 year old, can be done with lots of parental help. He thinks 8 might be a better age but if your grandson is really good on the computer he may be able to have some fun with this.

I think so...we got this for our,then,2 year old granddaughter...she loves it and plays with it a lot, but an almost 5 year old might outgrow it very quickly. It is short....but very cute.

Hi Carol, Yes these radios are easy enough for a 5 year old to use. However I would recommend something more durable though. My only concern is that if these were to be dropped, the battery pack will not fit back into the radio. During a test that I performed myself at school, I dropped one from a typical height of about 4 ft. and the battery pack did not fit in properly. The reasoning be that the metal hooks that the pack slides into to hold the battery in place were bent. Then again, for the price, with a few clicks, it can be yours. So yes easy to use, just remind everybody to be gentle. Hope this helps, please don't hesitate to ask if you have more questions!

My daughter just turned 4 and she rides it pretty well, so I think it should work really well for a 5 year old.

I bought one for my 10 yr old and she likes it. It might be pretty hard for a 5 yr old but I would get it. It will be a fun challenge.

It's fine for my 5 year old, but too flimsy for my 8 year old. Definitely made for the 2-4 range and my five y o is pushing it.
