What's the recommended age?

The recommendation listed ages 5 to 12. My son is 8. This toy can't take a lots of abuse without breaking. I started buying different Hexbugs for my son last year. The only other thing I recommend is buying extra "Hexbug" batteries, which are also available on Amazon.

I got these toys for my children when they were 5 and 7. They were cute but didn't hold their attention very long.

I would say over 4 years. Old enough not to put IT in their mouth and have fun watching IT scuttle around. *This is only for one Hex bug. The ad shows 5 and makes NO mention that you only get one.*

Well I´m 47 I have this on my office over my desk and I love it. Everyone ask me about it. Have small parts so be care full with little children.

Yes, ages 5-10 seems correct. Some reviewers mentioned letting three-year-old play. That's too young due to threat of choking if they put it in their mouth. Even kids who don't eat things anymore may still experiment with putting it in their mouth and accidentally swallow it. Why take a chance?

I would say it is appropriate for ages 2 to 5 years old. We have grandchildren that range in age from 1 to 7 years old. The one-year-old is just a little too small for it and the seven-year-old is seems too big for it.

I would say ages 2yrs-7yrs old. I have pics up of my 5yr old son and nephew jumping in it so you can get a better idea. hope that helps.

I would say it depends on the child. I would also think typically for a child at least 5 years old but better suited for a child with better dexterity. More suitable for a child 8 years or older.

I think it depends on the child. Our daughter was 6 when we got hers, but I'm sure she would have been fine earlier. I agree with the other response, not sure I'd go much below 4 years.

I would put an age of 3+. No end age since this could benefit a child who needs to increase and build on poor motor function. Hope this helps.

I don't know the "official" recommended age, but my daughter is 2 and has played with it and has loved it for at least a year. I think it's great for 1-3 year olds.

It says "Manufacturer recommended age: 24 months - 6 years". That's probably about right. My daughter is 3.

personally, i would say age 3 to 6, but older kids might like it too, like if they are visiting your house, or helping a younger kid with it. my daughter is 5 1/2 and still plays with it often. of course she has the motor skills down, but she still is entertained by making designs, and just using the tools, really.

My personal feeling for safety is 2 under age 5-6 unless they are bigger. I'm sure as many as three could fit but i tend to err on the side go safety.

Three years may be a little young, unless the child has excellent fine motor skills and interest. I recommend age 5 and up for the mind ware gift.

I purchased this for my four year old. My twelve and nine year old play with him as does my two year old :) I would say it's best for 3-5 year olds.

At least 10 kids can play at one time. And I'd be willing to be even more. With adult supervision a child that walks independently would be my preferred minimum age. My two-year-old loves to be underneath, and I can only imagine how much he would have liked it at age 18-months.

It's not about age recommendation, its about maturity level. I've seen 14 year olds who are more mature than my 23 year old friends. I would suggest it to the 14 year olds over them.

I am not sure of the officially recommended age, but I would say 18 months to 2.5 years. My 15 month old can't quite use it yet but by three a child would definitely have outgrown it.

Maybe 12 years old and up. . . it really depends on their hand/eye coordination.
