Is this too heavy for a 3yo to carry and make "fly"? In hindsight, would you recommend this or the Lego Duplo Bucky ship?

My Grandson got it as am early Xmas present he is 3 & I am quite sure he could make it fly

My son just turned 3 and he loves this. It is a little but heavy but not that much, si he will sure be able to make it fly.I Think this one is much better than any Lego Duplo.

My granddaughter had no problems lifting it. Unless he's quite small he should have no trouble.

My 3 year old loved this and easily played with it and made it fly. It isnt that heavy at all. I cannot speak for the Lego Duplo Bucky Ship we do not have that.

I don't think this ship was designed to be a "flying" toy... however as it weighs less than 4 lbs it could probably be "flown" around by a 3 yo depending on the child's size and strength.. I can't give any info or insight on the Lego Duplo Bucky ship as I know nothing about it..

I think it a good idea to start with duplo. While I bought it for a two year old it will be a fine place to start for a3.5 year old.

It is very light so a child can carry it. I had nieces/nephews from age 8-13 using it. They only played with it for about a half hour before giving it up. I think it is a cool "toy" but maybe not the kids...

We brought it for our granddaughter when she was 18 months old and she loved it. She pulled it instead pushing it but nevertheless, she really liked it.Now she is two and has a doll carriage which she is liking very much, that needs to be pushed. If the child is a boy, I say go for it! Another option would be a small wagon because they like to cart around their things. I hope this helps. We have so much fun with her; it's great.

It's small enough to carry easily, even for a little kid. The cars on the top level might fall off, but the rest should stay put. I hope that helps/answers your question!

While I am sure it would easily carry a 9/10 year old, I don't think they would enjoy it much. My 4 year old grandson loves it and it moves plenty fast for him, I don't think it would do the same for a 9/10 year old.

yes it should be easy for transporting a child. I was taken around wash. DC through exhibits and I weigh 176. It has small wheels and is light weight but it would be better for a child than it was me.

I believe this would be fine for a 2 to 3 year old. At four I would look for something different. My granddaughter is 15 months but in the 97th percentile for height and 80th percentile for weight and she still loves it and rides it very happily.

Are they walking well? If they're not walking well I wouldn't recommend letting them ride it. It kind of scoots jerkily. My 3 yo still adores this thing, my 1 yo really wants to play but it's too treacherous, the 3 yo nearly runs him over every time. It shoots right out from under the rider/pusher on hard floors, too. It's kept at Grandma's house now.

This item weighs more like 4 pounds or even less. My 2 and 4 year olds carry it around, it's light weight and one of their favorite toys.

One of our kids turns 3 tomorrow, he likes legos more than duplos. As long as your kids are out of the "put every toy in my mouth" phase, you should be in the clear

Yes! My three year old can hold it by himself. (Not fly it by himself) It was so easy to fly and we get lots of compliments when we fly it.

Hi Marcy....Yes, I think this would be a perfect helmet for him to carry....the opening would probably be too small for even a small child to put their head in, but perfect for a prop....and it is very light also....hope this helps...Gwen Aquinto

I bought it to take along on an international flight for my 2.5 years old daughter. However, I kept it in the carry-on suitcase, rather than my backpack because of the weight (3.75 pounds) and size (11.5 x 14 x 2 inches) of the box. Other than the Imaginets, I took along Fisher-Price iXL 6-in-1 Learning System (handheld game), Fisher-Price Classic Doodler With 2 Stampers and Crayola Color Wonder markers with coloring books (it was a more than 24 hours travel, including the layover).

Yes, I think it is ok for a child of that range. My nephews are within that range and they have used it comfortably. The weigh, I am not exactly sure of, but it is on the light side, like I would say 4 lbs or less, my estimate.

Probably. It is very light. My sons (6 and 10) can throw it around pretty easily and carry it.

I purchased the razor junior. Both my 3 year old grandson and 19 month grandaughter are able to ride it. It looks similar to the one the older boy next door has which probably wouldn't matter to a girl. The sparkle scooter lists a heavier weight.
