Is a 5 yr old boy too old for these.

He's too old. Our 2 1/2 is just the right size. But he is starting to use a adult fork and spoon.

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.

No, I got a total of 6 sets, my niece Micaela is 7 and she loves them and she is a girl, I didn't think she would want a set but she did. My nephew Bryce is only 18 months and he will only eat using these utensils, my nephew Aidan is 2 and he also enjoys eating using these utensils, the last three went to Clarence, Clyde, and Francis at ages 5, 3, and 2. The reports have been favorable but they play with their food more than they eat, but they are very picky eaters which is why I brought them for them. They all enjoy using the utensils overall. Hope this helps

Not sure but my boys are 7 months and they hold them, try to eat them etc and it is just fine. Maybe because that is the optimal age for the motor skills to stack them and stuff? Not sure but I think they are fine for any age. They are wood and are hard so that is something to consider.

Hi there, I bought this set for my boys, who were 5 & 7 at the time of the purchase and they like it a lot. They had it in their day care center in Pre-K, where the kids are 4 & 5. I have a 4-year-old girl now who I do not see building anything with the set but plays with it once the brothers built something already, so I do not know what to answer for a 4 years old. Maybe yes for boys if he is able to focus and follow instructions in the booklet. I would recommend it more though for a 5-years-old boy. Hope this helps! Irina

I think he or she would love them. My kids and now grandchildren love these. One of the best toys we ever gave them.

You know, I think that it might be okay for a 5 year old. I really loved them and so did the twins who are almost 3yrs. My other grandchildren were visiting and played with them too and they are girls 5 and 7.

I can't really say - I got these for my 5 yr old niece who had used them before and loved them (but she ran them dry) - if a recommendation from a 5 yr old is any indication, I'd say go for it!

they are recommended for ages 8+, but I bought them for my 5 year old for his birthday this year and he absolutely loves them, he's better at taking them apart and putting them back together than I am, some of those pieces are just so tiny, even with having small hands they can be a pain for me to put together, but if you have a little one that tends towards being messy with toys, expect for pieces to be lost with-in minutes of opening the box.

I think they would be fine. My boys had no problems with theirs and I tried them out too.

I think it may be a bit too young for boy turning 5, unless they don't mind not making the music themselves and just using it as a prop to pretend.

Yes they are suitable for a 6 year old. I love them and so does everyone else in my family.

My two oldest kids figured this out around 2 years old, so yes, 5 and 7 year olds should be able to use these. They're on the big side, though, so you may want to check out the kids' version, which my kids (ages 2-4) have and love.

They are quite small. Probably not best for real young children. Five and up probably best.

My grandson is 8 and still likes his. I think you'd be safe to get them for him.

I think he is too big for them. My granddaughter already has lost interest and she is 5.

HiThey were just right for my 13 year old boy. May be they are too big for a 5 year-old

I would say yes. I bought them for my son as his four year birthday present. Once you show them how to maneuver the buttons they are a hit!

5 year old has been playing on it for quite some time now . He has never complained. So i would say NO
