What age is recommended for the crab hexbug?

I would say 8 - 12 years, but of course kids differ. Braam. Have a nice day

I would say it depends on the child. I would also think typically for a child at least 5 years old but better suited for a child with better dexterity. More suitable for a child 8 years or older.

It depends on the child, but my daughter was 3 when we first bought them. Make sure your child is past the stage of sticking things in their mouth because the bugs are small.

I would guess that for typically developing children, ages 3-6 would be the target range. They're not the smaller size generally found in plastic alpha beads. They're large enough for little fingers to manipulate and for them to enjoy beading without adult assistance. I hope that helps.

I got my son one at 6 months old. He loved it when he could crawl and turn it on. Doesn't really touch it now and he's 16 months

Hi Bob, my son has this set, and I believe it requires a special hex bug, which comes with the set or can be purchased separately.

I'd probably wait a until the child was closer to 2. I purchased it for my grandson who had just turned 2 and he figured it out fairly easily but as we have since discovered, unlike his older brother, he apparently got the "puzzle gene". He loves puzzles and can do them just about as well as his 4 1/2 yr. old brother. They are both bright little boys but just look at the world differently. Even if the 12 month old has the "puzzle gene", it will most likely be months before he/she is ready for the beginner pattern one. There are some other Melissa and Doug puzzles that would be better starters - I'd look in to the Jumbo Knob ones for now.

My 2yr old daughter is insane over her Innotab 2 and so is her 6yr old sister..lol so I would say from my experience it can last till shes 6 or older they have games for 6-7 yr olds so as she grows you can get the more advanced game.

any age. My son is 4 and I have friends with kids that are 9 that have it. It is fun for any age.

My son is 3.5 mths and loves watching the little sea critters spin around. I purchased when he was 2 mths. He started to look at it once he could see across the room. The music & sea sounds are appropriate for all ages. The mobile detaches from the circular base unit and can be used as a toy for older children to push the music play/ stop button. The base conceals the batteries safely. The only down side to this product is that it does not light up. As a parent my favorite feature is the independent remote to restart the music without reaching into the crib. I think the music lasts about 20-30 mins.

No, too young. Wait until the child is three. Small parts! Also, not enough manual dexterity yet to enjoy the toy.

I haven't used yet and don't have a toddler. According to this website, CDC doesn't recommend using on toddlers under 3 yrs old. http://www.ewg.org/research/ewgs-guide-bug-repellents/kids.

my 12 yo dtr loves hex bugs--this is a Christmas gift so we haven't tried the new ones yet but I am sure they are good. dtr is a bit on tomboy side so I think would be appropriate for boys. may be a bit mild for boys who are into some of the more rough and tumble kind of things

I would advise not to give this to any child under three years old. Unless the 2 year old you are asking for is as large as a three year old and as mature as a three year old I would wait. It is a fantastic toy for my three year old grandson who mastered the steering in two days and is only allowed to drive in the low gear until he gains a bit more common sense...he doesn't need more speed yet. I hope this helps you.

We bought the SC-300 for our grandchildren ages 7-9. They are having a great time with it and it seems like older children would be ok with it too, maybe up to age 10-11. There are 300 projects with a lot of repetition that an older child may want to skip.

I'm not sure..our boys are 8-10 years old and these darts generate a lot of speed. I thought the pink/purple one was for girls but given the age span and same Air Hunterz company, I'd give it a chance.

I'd say 8+. Maybe 10+. Kids younger than 8 will have problems. Adults will enjoy as well.
