what is the recommended age for this toy?

Our grandchild just turned 1 and it is a little advanced for that age (but not too much). I'm guessing maybe 1.5 before bigger interest and maybe 3 for actually playing songs.

On the Hohner site it is listed for 12-24 months. It was a perfect match for our 18 month old, but our 4 year old enjoys it, too (there is a small insert with color coded songs to play).

I would say appropriate for ages 1&2 years old. It does come with a carrying case & mallet.

I'm not sure what recommend age is. I have purchased this for my 2 1/2yr old niece. Hope this help you.

My grandbaby is nine months old and plays with the toy now. Couldn't just give it to him to hold before because he would "konk" himself in the face with it. I would suggest at least nine to ten months old and I suspect they would play with it for a very long time. Prior to the baby's ability to hold the toy safely, you can just place it close by and play the music for him or her. Exposure to good music is always a positive thing and good for baby's developing brain.

Our grandson was 2 and is now 3 and still using it. I think even through age 4 to 5 he will still have fun with it. Hope that helps. He currently weighs sound 30-32 pounds. The toy seems to be sturdy

There's really no age group to this train set; I bought this set when my baby was 5mos old, she play with it then (put parts in her mouth) and now, she is 10mos old and still plays with it. I think we'll have it till she is much older, like 3-4 years old. Honestly, I don't think it's truly entertaining for her right now since she only knows how to put things in her mouth, but I'm sure we'll get more use out of it when she learns how to turn it on and off.

We bought it for a nine-year-old a few years ago. We still play with it often -- seven year olds, grandpas, even mom and dad on occasion. Ages 7 and up, I would say. We've had good luck ordering replacement parts from Elenco, the toymaker. This is a great toy.

I don't know what age it is recommended for, but our daughter is 4. She is old enough for it and I am not sure I would go below that age.

My 4 yr old loves it althought much of it is too hard right now. I would say 4-10 years old.

Hi. Sorry it took so long to respond. I would say, based on my experience, that this "toy" is perfect for three to six year olds. I always have a lot of kids at the house and those younger than three and older than six never seem to gravitate towards it. Hope this helps.

My daughter got it when she was 3. She's 4 now. She still plays with it. So does my 2 yr old.

I have no idea- I bought this toy for my 12 month-old and she loves it!! At 15 months she is still interested in it but I think she may get bored with it by the time she's 2. Maybe the warning is because of the little hammer?

Our grandchildren all play with it, and they are ages 2-8. The 8 year old girl only plays with it when playing with little cousins. I think 3-5 is ideal.

My son got this around that same age and played with it until he was nearly two. So yeah, 10 months is a good age.

I got this for my son when he was 13 months old. He likes to ride in it and also push it. Amazon's description and I think what is on the box says 18 months to 8 years. 1 year old is fine as long as they are walking a bit and have decent body control. I would think kids will get bored with by age 4.

This toy would be appropriate for a 10 month old. I bought this toy for my daughter and she is 1 and she loves it!

The EverEarth website says "Ages:18-24 Months." I got it for my 9-month-old son and he loves it. (However, I'm saving the removable magnetic shapes for him to play with when he's older, to avoid a potential choking hazard now.)

We gave the gift to our niece who was 14 months old and she unwrapped it herself and started to play with it immediately . If your child likes colors and shapes etc. he/she will probably play with the toy at a very early age. Hope this is helpful.
