is this lego set appropriate for my 3 yr old kid?

I think it would be great as it encourages children to build what they have in their imagination not what's in the box. Some small pieces so if it's a young three year old I would just be careful with that!

My 2 1/2 year old grandson plays with them with his older brother and sister. The size of them could be a choking hazard for a child that age.The child would have to be well supervised.

I would, off the top, say no. It has small pieces that can be hard to mainpulate for younger hands. DUPLO would be more appropriate for a younger child and later LEGO connect to DUPLO bits.

I'd say so. Do they already play with Duplo? Are they starting to engage in creative play (this is a dinosaur/I made a helicopter etc)? If so I'd say yes. It is more painful to step on than Duplo and takes longer to clean up :)

No, the pieces in this set are too small. A 2 year old would not appreciate what this set is.

we have 2 grand sons, one 2 and a half and one 5 and a half, the older one was slow to be interested, probably 3.5 years old but the younder one, at 2.5 is fascinated by the small lego, and will stay a good 30 min at a stretch, with the lego on a table ( as we cant find all the pieces if it is on the floor !) As with any 2.5 yr old, we are in the room with him of course, but he has no tendancy o swallow pieces or put in mouth. so depends on kid, My guess is 3.5 is quite OK.

no, this is for a more advanced lego builder. pieces are very small. I bought for my 11 year old and he loved it

Yes! We got it for my son for Christmas and he is 3. I'm not kidding he builds something and plays with this everyday!!

A good question. We have this set for our 3 yo, who's a bit short for his age. They say the set is good/adjustable up to age 11 or so, which may approximate your child's height now. So you may only get limited use from the set (i.e., less than 2 years) before it becomes too small. I would put the $ into an adjustable adult size set, particularly if your child's interest continues, it will be useable for much longer.

Hi, I think the best set for your child is the Duplo Series if this set is his/her firts lego set or the Junior Series is made with the traditional lego bricks but the sets are very easy to build.

If your kid is into Legos and has done some that are a couple hundreds pieces, they're totally fine. The pieces are definitely small and challenge for my 9 year old but he got into it. And if they're obsessed with minecraft, they'll like it a lot.

I would say it's appropriate for kids age 3 to 6. It's a good quality set. I bought it for my son when he was 6. He's 7 1/2 now and his drum instructor says he needs to move up to a larger set. Hope this helps.

Probably. I guess it really depends on how he plays and what he is interested in but I would probably go with something Lego or Playmobil for a 6 y.o.

Yes and no. By itself "starter set" just means it has everything a kid would need to have bunch of different vehicles and such to play with at once instead of buying multiple sets. Normally Lego does only one vehicle or such in a set that cheap but this way a kid can play with just one set and have enough to enjoy it. As for the age, once a kid is good with Lego everything is easy so it just becomes a function of whether it's something he'd enjoy.

Definitely not! I bought it for my 3 year old for xmas last year. I say its good for ages 3-6. It is a nice set!

I don't understand your question, are any of your words missing? My grandson was completely happy with the Lego set. It is very complex and challenging.

No it is not. It is a lego kit and it has 2 people, if I'm not mistaken, that you can build to go with it. Would be similar to any lego people you have seen before. Hope that helps.

Absolutely!First~there is no set up. It is ready out of the box. I put it in my kitchen with my two grandsons for doing legos or play dough activities..they loved it..and then wanted to eat at their special table! We moved it around to the living room for more activities..I ordered the set the next day when they left for their house and everyone loved it! Sturdy and accommodated 2 through 4 year olds! Great buy!

I bought if for a 4 yr old.....at first he needed some help following the instructions, but can pick out the right colors, shapes, sizes to make various models.....getting him ready for bigger lego projects in the future!

Depending on the childs ability and previous experience with building. I would say yes if they have built with other lego systems before. Like the lego action figures or trucks.
