Is it appropriate for a five year old?

It works surprisingly well, and is very tolerant of the inevitable crashes. Good value for the price.

I don't think a five year old would have the motor skills to fly this. This is probably not a good toy for anyone under the age of 8-10.

No, it would be frustrating and could not be handled by a five year old. This is something for someone much older. Wait about 12-13 years.

I bought several different helicopters for my son who has literally been obsessed with remote control helicopters since before his 5th birthday. For his 7th birthday we bought him this one and it was a LOT easier to control than other ones we have bought that were the Air Hogs ones. So I was happy with this purchase but overall - just know that remote control airplanes no matter what age they say they are for, are difficult for a lot of kids to fly - they get frustrated or they ruin it after a week! Just be prepared!

I bought this for my two-year old, and it's a little too big for her. I have to help her onto the chair and then push her chair in because her feet don't touch the ground yet. If your 5-year old is on the small side, it may be perfect for him.

Nope.... Its not that impressive...it's ok for a little one but not a serious 5 year old ;)

For a 5 year old its border line. Borderline in that they might be too big for it. It's perfect for the preschool set. Look at some of the scooters that have two wheels instead of three. A five year old might be ready to balance on the two wheels.

Yes, but I think it is more appropriate for 7-10 yr olds. It is also small for a 14 yr old.

Yes it is perfect for Children 5 to 13. It is not a toy and has metal strings.

Yes! Our six year old grandson loves playing the game with the family! I think a five year old could be helped to get it easily!

Hi,My kids love it but they are 11 and 8. I use it too.It may be a little difficult for a five year old and may frustrate them. I would wait. Try the ez glider. I have that too and is super easy and fun.

It is age appropriate for your 5 year old. My grandson was 3 and he loves it! If he likes fire trucks or anything related he will like this.

Yes, I believe it would be appropriate. My granddaughters are still enjoying it and it was a January birthday gift.

I think 5 year olds are pretty hip these days and could handle this. But my 20 year old grandson seemed to enjoy playing with the crank part. Kids will be kids. No guarantee your child won't use it as a toy.

I think your almost 5 year old would love it. It has play value beyond the age suggestion and would help spur your almost 5 year old into different types of imaginative play. My youngest great-nephew, who is 4, loves it. But his older brother, who is 7, loves it too and together they play happily for a few hours. If those 2 high energy boys can actually play together for a few hours, it makes me believe the toy has lots of play value. I hope this helps.

yes this is safe for a 5 year old. If your five year old can ride a bike he should not have a problem with this scooter . This is a good fun toy. Not a great means of transportation. My son age 10 could not keep up on our bike rides.

Hi Brenda, my son is 5 1/2 and has played with this for about 2 years now I believe. It is still in good shape and I think it would be great for a 5 y.o.

I think a five year old would still like it, since you can build an unlimited number of things. It is difficult for my 3 year old to put the objects together by himself, so a 4-6 year old would probably be the right age.

Hi Asheka, Absolutely it can be used for a 5yr old. That's good parenting; get them aligned with a healthy and organic consciousness at an early age. It's the best product I've found thus far...

Honestly I'm not sure but it would be too small for a 5 year old. It's not very big.
