is this challenging for a 7 year old who loves lego

Yes. You can build large structures even out of balance! My husband is an engineer, and he has had as much fun with our very large set as the grandkids do. We take this along on our summer lake vacations (no TV allowed), and everybody gets in on the fun. The tiles are large compared to legos and come in several sizes. I recommend buying the largest set which runs over $100. It allows lots of possibilities.

Probably not very challenging for a 7 year old. Our grandchildren ages 2-6 love them and use them to build houses, garages, etc. Magna-tiles seem easier for imaginative play.

I think this toy is something enjoyable by all ages from 2-99. It is a creative toy. You can make anything you want. I have a 2 year old granddaughter who loves them and a 26 year old who wanted to make sure we had some at home so he could use them when he was around.

If you have enough, it might be fun for a 7 yr old.....my 9 yr old grand daughter played with them awhile but is not interested now. They do tend to fall down easily so can be frustrating for some children

My is 5 years old & he is no longer finding it challenging, not enough pieces to build. I think the issue is you need lots of pieces to build something challenging but lots of pcs means lots of money. :-( My daughter (2 1/2) is playing with it right now. Hope this help.

My 5 year old daughter likes to play with it but nether her nor my son are into legos...personally if your son is into legos this might be too easy for him...but is fun to play with the wood looks wood but is soft like the rubber square mats for your floor that have ABC etc..hope this helps

No, It is even challenging for 7 year olds. Unless your child is very bright. They have to ask questions and then be able to know what to do with the yes and no train of thought, but fun game for 8 and up. Even adults.

I would not describe this one as easy, as my 8-yr old has gotten pretty good with Lego sets, but with a little bit of parental help for the wings, a 9-yr old should be able to build most of it.

my grandson got it for his 8th birthday, but he could have completed it when he had just turned 7, with minimal help. The instructions are very easy and in picture form, so there is no reading and it is also color coded to match the color of the lego used.

Depends on skill level of six year old but there isn't anything inappropriate about it. My first grader finished the game in a few days. He loves all the lego video games and has played them since he was 4-5.

It all depends on the user, it capitivates our 8 yr old grandson for hours. Of course he loves legos too and loves 500 + pieces finishing in one setting.

Depends on her success with smaller sets. My granddaughter has done a lot of Lego building and she loved this and plays with it often now that it is built. I hope this helps.

Absolutely. Great for any age from 7 years and up. It gets increasingly more challenging

Nope, my 8yr has built a set (7 at the time with a littile help) and his older brother (12 at the time) can build it on his won. Just lots of 1x1 squares and other smaller bricks. This was on the Orgional set. This will most likely be under the tree this year for them.

My 7 and 8 year olds do great with it. My 5 year old struggled. He mostly just runs around and hits things. The Lego games are great because they are much like puzzles. You have to try and figure out the sequence of actions are before you can move forward. This proves a little challenging for my 5 year old and I would think most 4-5 year olds would enjoy it for the fact that they can "be Iron Man" or other character but they won't progress much in the game on their own and may get bored after a few minutes and want "help". Hope that helps.

My neices were 8 & 10 when I gave it to them, and I don't think it was hard for them at all. Honestly, the whole family was so addicted to it, EVERYONE got in on it. Maybe it would be a great challenge for a seven year old to see what she might accomplish?

I bought this for my 5 year old grandson for Christmas so he hasn't played with it yet. He has a smaller set and loves it. This bigger set looks more challenging and although he is good at creating things, I anticipate he may need some help with this.

I'm not sure. My 10 year old loved the set. He took 5 days, a few hours each day, to put the crane together. He doesn't want to take it apart. It was very cool and excellent for him. I don't think my 7 year old has the patience yet for the smaller parts, screws, and learning how to pull it together. I'm thinking 9ish?

I would, off the top, say no. It has small pieces that can be hard to mainpulate for younger hands. DUPLO would be more appropriate for a younger child and later LEGO connect to DUPLO bits.

The child will definitely need help from an adult. There are a lot of pieces and 3 instruction manuals. The younger kids tend to get bored after realizing it takes a while to build. I bought it for an 8 year old who helped with some of the construction, but I still ended up building most of it (this was ok since I enjoy building Lego sets). When the construction is finished, they will enjoy the set regardless of age.

Maybe it is a bit kiddie for a 12 year old though but....who knows it is Lego! Extra Lego bits are likely/always appreciated but Lego set that build something specific is likely more appropriate. Most of the DC comic line is very good Lego City and Star Wars are also sought after. It all depends on the kids interest.
