Will the cap hold up to a 6 year old chewing on it or will it end up deforming or getting all scratched and chewed up looking? Or would it split?

No, it would not hold up. The cap is soft and slightly pliable so it would get chewed up.

The plastic portion is very sturdy however a child could possibly tear the rubber spout off if gnawed on long enough, then you may have a chocking hazard. Don't mistaken this for a sippy cup.

I will say that the spout & cap are made of very think rubber. In my opinion, I don't think that even a dog could chew through it but don't really know.

It has a removable cap- and a very sturdy one! As long as you don't bite it, that is aha :D

No. I have a 4 & 6 year olds who have abided it for as long as we have it and no breakage.

don't know, i don't have kids, but really depends on size of cap. looking at it, it appears to be small enough, you may have a problem with small fitted caps, you also have to look at the depth of the crown or height of the cap. it looks to be 3.5 to 4 inch in depth.

You can use it over and over. It is very durable and will give your children many hours of enjoyment unless they gouge it with something sharp and tear it up. Otherwise it will last a long time. You may need to buy replacement tools for it.

FYI - the horses body is covered with a textured material, they aren't smooth plastic. It does wear off, so it's great for older kids, but not for ones who will put it in their mouth.

Jessica, it'll last more than a year. The stick is about 6" long and is in a cardboard cylinder. What I do for my son is cut it in half and find a pill bottle cap that fits snuggly on it to keep it from drying out. It also keeps the stick from picking up dirt and grass that will stick to it. Also, it keeps it from spreading onto things you don't want sticky. When you cut it in half one of the pieces will be open on both ends, so, I use athletic tape to seal up one end. Now that you have 2 shorter pieces, it's easier to handle and breaks less frequently. Hope this helps.

Eventually it will wear down - it's not invincible. But they do last for months... especially if you get a really large one.

My son chews on everything and he likes the little patch of hair on the dolls head. I think it could be chewed off, so that is a potential choking hazard.

Both my toddlers easily chewed this and my youngest is now 2, but obviously it depends on the child. I sometimes use to break one in half and give little pieces, but it crumbles easily in my opinion. You could easily crush as well as that is what a friend of mine does with her 3 year old and mixes with honey. Great product!

Yes, it won't be as protected, but it's just a cap. It doesn't hold anything together.

My son, 6 years old had his for a year cape didn't come off. The head did (well I think my son had something to do with that) we superglued it back on, it's fine no other problems.

I bought 2 hats, one for a 6 yr old and a 2 yr old. They worked out fine. They are very sturdy plastic, not flimsy.

It didn't completely break so far, but it's very loose now, so most shapes do not hold well. I have three kids who pay with it pretty actively; taking that into consideration the durability is ok, but not great.

Yes, it takes caps. Although it looks cool, if it's for a child it's not super sturdy for regular play! My son's cracked within a month

I would think that it could be made to fit a 6 year old as you can stretch, trim, and glue to fit. I do not believe something as large as horns could be glued to the bald cap. The material is very thin and would probably tear.

My son is 10yrs old and had it since March. So far it's still going strong. But it does look as if you gave intentional force that it would break. My opinion only.... Hope this helps�
