Is it age-appropriate for a five year old?

Sure! It seems more geared toward younger kids, but my 6 year old still plays with it (with his 3 yo sister) and they love singing to people and serving up the cake.

I think so, yes. Most kids love birthday parties and this is the perfect toy for pretend play! I bought it for a 3 year old, but a a preschool teacher, I know a lot of 5 year olds who love this! Hope this answer helps!

Hi K. Carone,Ummm, it depends on the size of the 5 yr old. But I don't think so. My boyfriend assists our 4 yr old with riding it. So I think it's fine.

I think the youngest appropriate age would be about 5 or 6. My 6 year old nephew played it pretty easily.

I got this for my 8 year old Daughter, she loved it. I think it's not too heavy for a 5 year old, my opinion.

I believe it would be a little hard for a five-year-old. If you don't have a flow down to move the pen just right, the plastic circle that creates the shapes will pop out from the border. So, a five-year-old would probably have it pop out all the time and get frustrated with it, rather than believe it to be fun. My daughter is nine and it took her some time to perfect the flow of making them.

It would probably be most appropriate for 4-5 year olds. I bought it for my 6 year old son and he was done with it in about 20 minutes.

It depends on how big the 5 year old is. I gave it to my nephew when he was 7 and it was not too heavy for him.

I would think so, my nieces are 5 and 8 and they love theirs. Though it is more than a year old at this point, you might consider investing a little more unless you are concerned about abuse.

Depends on the child but I'd say no .... closer to 5 should be the starting age

I would say a five-year-old is too old for this toy. More like a two-year-old.

I don't think a five year old would have the motor skills to fly this. This is probably not a good toy for anyone under the age of 8-10.

I bought this for my 4 year old grandson and it seems to be age appropriate for him. I would not recommend any younger and would not go past 6. that's just my opinion. hope this helps.

I think a five year old would still like it, since you can build an unlimited number of things. It is difficult for my 3 year old to put the objects together by himself, so a 4-6 year old would probably be the right age.

I think it would be pretty frustrating for most 5 year olds. They could assist, of course, particularly if they have a long attention span and pretty good fine motor skills. A five year old might get a bigger thrill out of one of those giant floor puzzles, if you could find one with a picture he/she really liked.

I think it would be great. Our 5 yo is shorter than average, and it's a bit big for her. She manages to ride it, but I think it will serve her to age 7 at least

5 year old these days I would say yes. My kid is 10 now but at 5 she had a DS and was playing games like this so depends on the child I think.
