would you recommend this for a 2 1/2 year old?

Yes, there's more than one part to it so he might just play with the loader and then adapt to the whole thing. It is a very well built truck.

Yes, I think you can get this for a 2 year old which they can use till about 4.

I bought for my 2 year old and she loves it. So I would say it's safe for a 2 year old if your 2 year old is not the one who likes to put small objects in their mouth.

Yes, I bought it for my 14 month old granddaughter but her 2 1/2 year old brother likes it better.

My daughter received hers for her 3rd birthday. She's very smart but she does have difficulty with tracing the letters and numbers in the "pet" application. However, for a 2-1/2 year old I'm sure that it would be useful, just as long as it keeps their attention. Some kids do better than others. Mine has a bit more energy and can only play for a short time before wanting to get up and go. If the device lasts long enough, it should be useful for up to 9 years, but I'm sure we'll have quite better equipment to choose from by then.

You're very welcome. It is very small and I think it's to advanced for a 2-3 year old. Hope he/she enjoys it

I don't recommend a DS for a 3 1/2 year old. My 10 year old loves his DS but his 6 year old brother has difficulty using it. By the time your 3 1/2 year old "grew" into the DS someone will have another, better product. I recommend keeping it simple, stick with Leapster.

I think so - there is enough little things about it that the 2-3 year old would stay interested in it. I would say about three it would be time to invest in a different one. The product is so durable though it would hold up for more kids wanting to play with. I do not think you would regret it!

I purchased this for my twin girls' 2nd birthday. They loved it. I would think your 1-year-old would be ok in the middle section...or on the end if the other child was very gentle in rocking.

Maybe, I gave it to my friend's daugther when she was 1 year, she is 2 now, and still play with it though, but I saw a new toy "Read with me Violet" that will be better for your granddaughter in my opinion, take a look on that one too.

Absolutely. It comes with several levels of patterns so the beginner boards with the shape outlines would be perfect for a two year old.

She is so cute!!! I think it was not good for the one year old I bought it for (attention span, lol). I think a 2 1/2 year old would enjoy this doll because it's precious and the magnetic pacifier that comes with it comes off easy. I think she would enjoy it with interaction. Also, the quality is very GOOD! I thought it would be a little bigger, but it's cute as a button.

I believe it's 3+ but I think a 2.5 year old would be fine with it. My son got it at 2 I think.

My son is 3 1/2 and enjoys it. I would stick around that age, in terms of introduction? I'm no expert...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fkfhupn2xQI bought this for my 1 year old grandaughter, she is petite and had more than enough room for another 1year old. We put a pillow in front when she first received it. Now at 1/ 1/2 years old you could still get two in, but depending on their body length it might be less room than you want. I am including a link that has an adult sitting in it, so you can get an idea. It has worked well for us, but if you have two larger children, you might look at something a step up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-fkfhupn2xQ

I guess is a good option. I bought it for my nephew, but she is 2 years old, and for now she starts to play with this kind of things, but for a boy of 8 years I think is good.

I have a three year old. We got it when he was 2.5. A younger child could probably use some pieces of it. The zipper and velcro are easiest and I suspect even many 1 year olds could use them. There are still a few things my son cannot do (like tying shoes), but that's why we got it, to grow with him. I'd guess 1.5-4 would be a great age for this toy.
