It depends on the 4-5 year old. My son who just turned 5 can build the 8+ sets without much assistance. He didn't find the juniors sets very exciting at all, we tried those when he was 4. He prefers the themed sets (lego movie/star wars/mixels) over the simple juniors one. As a general rule he can do the regular sets with less than 300(maybe 400) pieces on his own, and requires slight assistance with ones that have more.

Hi, I think the best set for your child is the Duplo Series if this set is his/her firts lego set or the Junior Series is made with the traditional lego bricks but the sets are very easy to build.

I have a two and four year old and they both still play with the work bench. The building pieces that come with the set would be perfect for a five or six year old. My 12 year old will even use the building pieces from time to time. I hope this helps.

The manufacturer recommends ages 3-8, however a previous reviewer said 4-10 in her estimation. I think it mostly depends on your kids' size and skill level. If they are over 8 but relatively small for their age, this set should work great. On the other hand if they are a tall/big kid for their age or they've grown in skill level and need a bigger kit, go for a different set.

I think a 3.5 year old would love this set. It's a good starter set and when you add another set of just the blocks, the combinations are endless.

Yes. There is an assortment of trains to choose from. Any of the Power Trains is recommended for kids 4-10.

whatever age the child doesn't constantly put these (or objects) in his or her mouth... so just depends when child is out of that phase. My daughter- 2 1/2- loves to play with these, my 5 year old son likes to play with these. There are imaginex toys of Spongebob that are of similar size to these... so these easily go with those playsets- like the submarine bus... these toys go well with that. The nice part is that you have practically the whole cast when purchasing this set... can't say that for the other choices out there:)

Monica, Yes, your 5 year old would enjoy the construction utensils. I'm now watching my third grandchild enjoy them from ages 2 1/2 through 6.Happy Thanksigiving.

For a three year old I recommend Duplex, Magablocks, or GeoTrax. Legos are borderline for age 4 and great for 5 and older.

depends how advanced this five year old is. my brother's 4 year old niece who has been around lego since birth (thanks uncle me) would have no problems. will for sure need some help with the -spoiler alert- rubber bands for the s-foils, and maybe some of the smaller pieces, but otherwise i say go for it! worst case scenario, you get some great father/son bonding time!!!

Yes, probably. My 4 year old grandson was able to put most of it together himself when he was 3. However, he loves it and still plays with it. It goes with the other City sets. You can look for "Lego City" and see if you can find a set that says 5-12 or 6+. Those are more challenging. There are many to choose from and many prices to choose from.

my 4 year old grandson loves it but I personally feel like a 5 year old would be able to play with it better than a 4 year old.

Great question. I would say that the toy, once assembled, it suitable for a 4 year old. I think they'll need help putting it together, but once the toy is built it is big enough for them to easily play with. Plus it's fun because it has a lot of bright colors and it has three mini-figures (superman, wonder woman and lex luthor). Hope that helps.

Yes, I think 5 would fit great. There was those finger things, kazoos, balls. A nice "cheap" assortment. And fine for that age group.

This is very good for even a 3 year old and this is a set that will grow with the child and makes room for creativity and variety as they get older.

Most definitely. I would think that's the perfect age. I have two and my granddaughter is only 16 months. Hardly old enough to hand them to her as a toy. But she giggles at them when I hold her on my lap and we play with them. She definitely has it figured out how to feed the little guys! EDITED: to say: After reading the comment left by CandaceMacan24 , I may agree that 5 and above may even be a better age group than 4 - she makes some good points. Depends on the kid. As a side note, My 16 month old GD isn't scared by it.

My son is 4 and it's fine for him. They're plastic/rubber-y figures with no little parts to come off so younger kids should be fine, too. And older ones that like to play with figures and use their imaginations should be fine, too. Happy shopping!
