could a 4 year old work this? He's really good at Ipad games

I don't think so. Age 8 would be much better. The car is very fast and more difficult to handle than what a 4 year old could manage. But I'f you're really getting it for yourself, that's another matter!

Yes, he can play it. The only difficult part is to teach him how to connect the car with the iPad by Bluetooth

Ours malfunctioned about 4 months after we got it. But to answer your question, I think a two year old would do well with it. My boys were 3 and 4 and both did good. Just make sure you check the age recommendation on the games as some would be a bit to advanced (basic math and reading) and may cause frustration if someone can't be with him helping him along.

My son was 2 1/2 when we got the system, and he did amazingly! The day after he got it, he had already learned to write several letters by himself. We had never practiced letters before!But it also depends on the game. Many of the games are geared towards older children.

I had a four year old and a six year old play with it at my house. The 4 year old could not do it. The 6 year old made mistakes but was able to make the designs and have fun. With a little practice he would have been fine. So the first few times, parent will need to direct and assist, but then it will be enjoyed.

Yes. My son was just a little over 2 when he got his. Now some games are challenging for him and requires help from a parent or his 5yr old brother; but for the most part he learned how to use it very quickly on his own!

I agree wholeheartedly that it depends on the child. Our daughter received her ds at 5 and had no problems using it right away. Our son just turned 3 and we're considering purchasing something similar for him because he already knows how to do some things on the computer and work portions of my iphone. If you think the stylus may be too difficult for him to handle at this age, go with the leapster or let them try an old gameboy perhaps.

if the child is tech savvy, then go for it, otherwise it is a bit complicated in my humble opinion. I still have "operator issues" from time to time.

Mmm... I think it works for kids of 4 years old.He can play finding the animals but I don't think he will understand that he needs to make a secuence.I suggest you the game UNO MOO for a 3 year old kid.

If your 4 year old enjoys more analytical type play, such as puzzles and matching games, they will enjoy this game. I gave this to my 4.5 year old and she enjoys playing with me.

Yes! I bought one for my 11 year old grandson. I have been downloading apps on it so he would have some games. I got the resistive screen so it's best to use a stylest but works with finger also. Angery Birds Star wars looks awsome! Turn it on and two touches your playing.

It depends how strong the 4 year old is. If you close it tight then the answer is no. However, the teacher can help.

I think he would be too young. I have a 6 and an 8 year old. We played it with the 8 year old, who can read. She enjoyed it the first time and we went easy on her, since we knew her routes. (We had to explain it to her as we went along.) Then we let her play it without our help and she ended up crying because she was so disappointed to not play so well. It's a great game but my kids are both too young for it yet.

To "unlock" the lock, it requires the user to push the mechanism in while sliding it to the other side. I think, with a little practice, your 4 year old could do it.

Depends on his age. If he is around 5 he would have to work at it but could do it. 3 & under I would say it would be quite hard for him but I don't put anything past some really ambitious little ones.

Since you can modify the rules depending on the ability of the players I would say it's not a matter of age as much as ability. If you have a 4 year old who has basic math skills you can change the rules to work with that student. But I would say anyone who can do basic addition and subtraction you should be able to use these with. Just modify the rules to what you need.

If they can handle the controller(s) with no issues they probably will do ok. They do however need to be able to follow directions to complete the tasks in order to finish each level. If someone was able to help them with that I'm sure they would enjoy it. :)

Short answer, yes - however, as most things in life, it depends on how strong your 4-year-old is.
