are these big enough for a 5-7 year olds hands, to teach them how to sew?

Yes most definitely. My children between the ages of 2 and 6 can all use these well.
1049430
Yes. They are great for that age but you will need loose fabric. We are using burlap

Yes, easily big enough for a 5-7 year old. They're quite thick though - maybe ok for cross-stitch. We used ours for lacing activities for 3-5 yos with no problems.

I bought these for my daughter's 3 year old preschool class as a request by her teacher. I wasn't there when they actually used them, but I'm sure they'd be fine for 5-7 year olds.

Yes, they are perfect for that. However, they do not fit through buttons if you intend to use any.

Yes, they are bigger and thicker. But unfortunately that doesn't mean they're more durable. My 3 year old's grip is almost too much for them. Hope this helped!

These were purchased for my son and daughter-in-law and I've not used the current version. I bought them based on my good experience when my children were little, and as I recall mine, I think the thickness might make sewing them together difficult.

I gave these to a three year old who is only 4 1/2 now. He still wears and loves them. They have some size to them and I would think, unless the 7 year old is quite large for his/her age, they would still be liked.

Yes. The hand holds have enough to grab on that they would be great. Our 11year old son has used these for 2 years and they are great!

Well they are pretty small on me but I have unusually large hands. The daughter I bought them for is 16 BUT she has tiny hands for her age and they fit perfectly for purposes of boxing at least. As long as the 6 yr old is not punching any hard material with them I would think they would fit, the only issue might be that the fingers may not make it out of the ends, or only just barely. You may also want to check how tightly they are being worn or put them on the child yourself because it has a double lock elastic band in the wrist that could be overtightened and cut off circulation. I have had to loosen them before at the wrist after not noticing that I tightened them too much and within 3 minutes my hands were starting to feel it.

Absolutely!! They are brightly colored little "vehicles", soft and sized nicely for any size hands! My 3 yr. old granddaughter enjoys them as much as her little brother, and understands the "pull-back and release" concept.

If she's tall I would. Then they'd last her a while longer. We got shorter ones for her when she was six and didn't work too well because she was a little taller too.

Yes-I bought for my daughter when she was 7 and we still use them now and she is 8.5. These are great!

They would probably fit the older girls. Ages 4-7. You could also try shrinking them in the laundry with the dryer on high heat! These gloves are an excellent 80s touch!!

I was teaching 1st and 2nd graders. The loops are very tight on the loom and most of the children had me helping. There were 14 children, some had no patience for it, some did not want to try, the few who tried needed help, but one little boy got his mom to buy him a loom and loops. I think I might look around for one that you can try in a store. It was not easy for me when I did it. I remember the ones I had as a child were more loosed. You cannot do with fingers. It is just tight. Hope this helps.

My daughter is 9, but I think 7 year olds could handle it. Any younger and they may get frustrated with the patterns. The basic bracelet is very easy to make...
858860
Yep. As long as they aren't the type of 5 year old who puts small things in their mouth. Some adult help with instructions may be helpful
963224
Yes if they aren't used much. It is a good song velcro.... But not meant for sewing. Hope that helps!

Yes. My 4 year old does. My suggestion is to let her practice at home before sending her off with it. Good luck. I still like these a lot.

The size range is 3-5 yrs. and I think they would work since they are fabric and not the cheap plastic type.

Yes, they are small enough. Just make sure the baby's hand is somewhat "stable", I know it's hard, specially with boys. But they are pretty good!
