She could still use this. My daughter will be able to use it for years if she needs to. Its plenty big enough.

I purchased this one for my 9 year old but I'm sure it would be fine for a 12 year old. I bought a different one for my 11 year old daughter though. Their very popular and they love to ride their friends.

It depends on the 12 year old. Ours was on the weaker side. Small, not to active. When we got this he couldn't pull the string even though it is pretty weak. It took about a year before he had the ability to do so, but now he enjoys it.If you are concerned, go with a traditional short-bow. It is far easier to draw than the compound.

It's a full set, not a junior set. My 12 year old LOVES it, and there is room for him to grow into it.

I bought this set for my daughter's 12 birthday and she loved it! I guess this will also work for younger girls if they are crafty. Hope this helps!

Yes I think it would be too young for a 12year old. I bought it for 5 & 6 year olds.

It is remote control and would be fine for a 12 year old but there is a learning curve if they have never flown one before. If they are patient it's a great gift. Otherwise try an indoor only starter one (which is also loads of fun).

It depends on the age and size of the child. I think any 12 year old would have no problem whatsoever.

Any over the ear would work just fine for an 8yr old. Otherwise I personally enjoy the beats by dre but those are expensive and I don't really thing necessary for a young person. I'd say try Sony brand?

It would be perfect for a 12 year old. It does take a couple hours to put together. You have to watch the CD that comes with it. One of the screws was missing, but my 17 year old still plays it and it sounds great.

Ehh I'd wait til he/she was 14-16 Its pretty heavy (i use a rest usually and im 24yrs old 6'2 180lbs) There is a little bit of recoil which could scare them. its a bit noisy If u don't use heavy pellets (can break the sound barrier creating a sonic boom) and the piston action is tough to actuate. even after its broken in after 100 shots or so. Plus it has enough muzzle energy to kill or maim animals easily. I'd stay with a multipump or lever action bb gun til he/she is older. I actually have a 20$ one from Walmart that's fun as heck and just the right fit for a 12 year old. Get 500 BBS and some tin cans and its fun for hours for dirt cheap. This gun is for doing work on vermin or shooting tacks at 50 feet.

I bought this for a 12 year old for Christmas. That was the age I was when I got my first diary. She loved it. I thing 12 to 13 is an appropriate age. It allows just enough privacy to a young girl that age.

This is indeed remote controlled. Whether or not it is appropriate for a 12 year old depends entirely on the 12 year old. If they have any experience with a remote controlled helicopter before, then this would be a fine gift for them. If they have no such experience but enjoy the challenge of mastering a new skill and have a great deal of patience then this may also be a good gift. If they have no RC experience and don't handle crashes well, I would suggest a coaxial 3-channel helicopter instead. They are much easier to fly, though this will be more rewarding if and when it is mastered.

It honestly depends on the 12 year old. I bet some adults could learn a lot from this kit!

The adult size is a bit bigger. I would recommend the adult one for your 12 year old if he's bigger. If you have one for yourself, have him try it out. I hope this helped.

of course the manufactured would kinow best; however, my grandchildren age 9 and 12 asked for same for Christmas 2013. Thne 12 year old is really into it and really enjoys it and understands the concept; but my 9 year old does not seem interested (has not yet begun to look at it). I would say it all depends on the child and their interests. Sorry, this is all I have to offer.

Depends on the child's leg length but I would recommend the 12". That should last several years.
