Probably they would like playing with them now, but wouldn't get the full benefit of these planks until they are older, when they have better fine motor control and can follow the wonderful diagrams. Since the planks don't lock together at all, younger children might be frustrated because their stuctures fall apart easily. However, if adults or older children join in, it could be a great family experience for the younger kids.

The toy is a set of 200 wooden rectangles. It takes an older one to put together suggested structures. The 3 and 4 yr olds will play WITH you. By themselves they can stack up the pieces.

No this toy is really for a child around 9 or 10, just to advanced for a 3 year old.

It really depends on the child. My grandchildren had them at age 4, but really enjoy them now that they are 5, 7, 9. They each have their own set. Mine don't put things in their mouth (chew on them.) And they seemed to be coordinated enough to handle stacking things without getting frustrated if they collapse. Hope that answer helps!

Not for it's intended purpose. It's very difficult to build ramps. It could be used as a simple block set, but all blocks are the same shape And size, limiting the fun as a block set.My eldest is much older than 4 and had all of his "non trivial" creations collapse before they were finished. He has very good gross/fine motor skills (ie. he is not clumsy in any way, he's the opposite).

They might enjoy playing with the blocks, but I don't think they would have the patience to complete the contraptions. It takes a lot of patience and dexterity to complete the contraptions in the handbook.

I have a 4 and 3 year old. I think it's typical great playmobile quality. Track is a little small but good enough for us. A little tricky for 3 year old to get on track but easier for 4-5 yr old.

Both our kids use them. Their ages are 4 and 10. It should be fine for all kids 4 and older.

My 4 and 6 year old grandsons play with it. The two year old doesn't play with it at all. It is a big toy.

No. My 4 yr old granddaughter plays with it along with her 18 month old sister. They both love it and the play food that can be purchased is great also.

I'm not sure my 4 year old liked it last year and plays with it when her sister who is 2 takes it out. If I remember correctly it doesn't really do much it's imaginative play so I'm going to say maybe 2-4. Depends on the child as well.

I don't think a three year old would get a lot of use out of it. I got it for one year old, his 3 year old cousin would be more interested in power ride-ons.

I think with supervision it would be ok. My four year old likes to play with it but needs help sometimes.

We bought it for our then 3 year old. He is now 4 and still likes to play with it.

Yes that's why they had to put an age requirement on this toy. I let my 2 year old play with these. He was always supervised. This is a great toy but if you let your child under 3 play with this set alone it could be considered a choking hazard.

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!

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.

The manufacturer says it is for ages 3-9. We bought it for our granddaughter that was just turning 3. In my opinion the toy wouldn't hold up if the child plays rough with it. The parts doesn't come totally apart. A small rope is run through the middle of the body to hold it together.

Yes, I do think that this is an item that would be ok for both your 4 year old and 18 month old.

I bought it for my grandson who was turning 3. My 7 year old grandson plays with it too

I have 3, one of each of my boys - your four year old will not be able to "play" with it. It is cool but it's not a kids toy! There are lots of other bumblebee's out there that are easier for that age group to play with - this is not one of them.

My 4 year old and 2 year old both love it. I got it for my daughter last Christmas when she was 3 and she still really enjoys it. She is very tiny though, it may be to small/flimsy for the average sized 4 year old.
