How small are they? I want it for my 8year old.

Sorry for not responding sooner, we've been traveling. They fit in the palm of an adult's hand. So they would be perfect for an 8 yr old. They should be able to grip them which is the purpose. Hope this helps!!

My guess is that they would be a little bit too big for an 8 yr old, but I'd give them a try if I were you.

They are a little larger than golf balls and slightly smaller than racket balls.

I'm an adult female and the balls fit right inside my hand with no problem and I'm able to squeeze the one I choose while watching TV..I don't know how big your 8 year old hands are..I mean they are not THAT small, but they are not big either.

Yes, they should be just fine for an 8 year old, unless he/she has very small hands. The balls are a little smaller then a tennis ball. My son (who is 45 years old), uses them and they have helped him termendously. I wish you the best. Sally

They are small and fit in your hand. My 8 yr. old was very disappointed when he got them. Not worth the money.

I think it would be great for an 8 y.o. boy. These are definitely not toys. They are real tools. I (the mom) actually use them when I need a tool. They are very functional and a great size for kids.

It's a small pack and fits my kids aged 8 and 10. I usually use it but they have too!

Yes, I bought them last year for my 11 year old ( which she loved). They are perfectly fine for an 8 yr old. They are comfortable and you just have to plug them into your device.

I have a small 8 yr old girl and it is good. She wanted to do tricks. And I knew her dad would be showing her so I tried to find something that would stand up to him and be small enough for her. If he is active, I would say yes.

The size is just perfect for my 3 year old. I would imagine that it is too small for an 8 year old.

yes, to big for an 8 year old, but you could put rubber bands around the wrists to hold them on. Could be extra funny, depending on the games, would add a "makes the games harder and more Funny"!

I wouldn't think so. I got mine for my 8 yr old. I think you need something bigger.

They are pretty small. Prob Beenie buddy or beanie Boo size but they are really nice and my son LOVED it!

It may be a little small for that age. My son is 6 and it's a perfect size for him, my 8 year old is a bit big for it.

We gave them to our grandson, who is 8. He loves them. But, if he were younger and smaller, we would have hesitated because they are a bit small. I can't come up with a trustworthy size guess, but remember them as being around 3-5 inches. Hope this helps.

They are small.. ..maybe 4 or 5 inches. Our 4 year old granddaughter loves them.They are just right for her little hands!

I would say it depends on how tall your 8 year old is, but my daughter is 7 and about average height and it's still tall enough for her. We bought it for Christmas and we're still on the first batch of batteries and it's going strong. I think it's a good deal. Best of luck!

It's too small for an 8 year old. Actually, it was too small for my 3 year old.

They aren't really kid sized. I returned them because a mallet broke during the first game. They were not at all durable.

No they are not small by any means. I wouldn't give them to a child but I've had adult friends that commented how big they were. I loved the yellow and red ones but other friends liked the purple ones.
