Are these for young kids? Or must they specifically say they are ok for young children?

I gave these to my pop warner boys during football. They loved them. Its like a Gatorade popsicle.

they are recommended for ages 8+, but I bought them for my 5 year old for his birthday this year and he absolutely loves them, he's better at taking them apart and putting them back together than I am, some of those pieces are just so tiny, even with having small hands they can be a pain for me to put together, but if you have a little one that tends towards being messy with toys, expect for pieces to be lost with-in minutes of opening the box.

I purchased them for my Grandson and they seem to work fine for him....he is only 6. :)

I think these are delicate toys made to be played with delicate hands. Maybe they should suggest this for kids a little older! No problems here.

My grandson was 3 when I bought them for him. I think as long as they don't put them in their mouth, they should be good for 2 year olds. My grandson plays with them for hours!

Really, I see them more as adult collectibles, because they are expensive, and they're also a bit on the fragile side. I would not recommend them at all for a very young child. The tail, for instance, easily comes apart into individual rings, and it would be easy to lose them or swallow them. They vinyl toys are less poseable, but far more durable.

I bought sets for both my 6 year old and my 10 year old. I wouldn't recommend them for a child younger than 6, they do have some small pieces.

They are a little sharp on the rim. I would not use them for toddlers.Joe D.

My son is 6 and they work okay for him. I don't think I'd give them to a kid much younger than that. We gave these to him last year for Christmas along with a set of Snap Circuits.

I would say yes. I purchased them for my 2 year old grandson and have held up thus far.

I am not sure why they say not to use under the age of 3. I have this fitted sheet for my daughter, she is 3. They are kind of slick, not really satin but they are not like cotton sheets. I do not see why you could not use them for younger children. I love them and she does too. If you order the pillow cases I have noticed that they come off the pillows really easy because they are so slick. That might be the only concern that I would see.

They are soft so younger children shouldn't have any problems playing with them. They do have strings and small batteries. Batteries have a cover that requires a tool so as long as parents supervise should not be and choking hazard with small parts. Cords are adjustable as well to better fit height.

absolutely. i have used them since my daughter was 2. She doesn't mind them at all and the size is perfect for kids!

Depends on the kid...but probably? My daughter (4) and my son (2) love them. I definitely feel like they're geared toward little kids.

They are beads so please beware when giving to children under 3. These are very well made and my family has a huge collection that has grown in the past 6 years - we have never lost an eye. However, things happen so please take care with the wee ones. All of the reviews of people giving them to infants worries me. :/

While this may vary from person to person, I would say that they're probably best for toddlers who are walking. However, they certainly would not be harmful for a baby younger than walking age to play with. They really are a great size, and the material is a soft rubber -- so not as hard as a real soccer ball, football, or basketball, but not a fuzzy soft toy either.

I think they would be fine for a 3 year old, as there are no small parts and they are really fun. I think a small would be fine for a 3 year old
