My daughter is 10, but this looks like something she'd really enjoy. Is this too young for her?

My 9 year old son loves this, and builds different configurations to make it challenging.

Not at all! I teach K-8 gifted and every grade loves it. Consider buying 2! It's so fantastic that making a giant structure would be so fun! There are LOtS of pieces and great instructions so maybe get one then add to it later once she is a pro :)

I'm an adult and I love to play with my son's set. You can use it with wooden blocks and other items from around the house (like plastic funnels, etc.); so keep that in mind. And to C. Bryson, try building it up higher with blocks. I would suggest buying 2 sets, if you can afford it; maybe even 3. The more sets, the larger you can build your run, and use blocks or other toys/household items to create ramps, etc.

I think so, Beatriz. I bought this for my daughter who is 9, and it's perfect for her. I hope this helps!

I think that if the 10-year-old likes to "put stuff together and make things work", it's a great educational toy for that age! The pieces are color-coded and also marked with letters/numbers and the instructions tell you in which order to place the pieces together. I don't think it is too elementary for a 10 year old to start with.

My daughter is 10 and she enjoys is very mush - my wife finds her pretty (a detailed doll). It displays on shelf very nicely - please note, it is not a typical barbie doll, but it is pretty

It is easy enough for 10 year olds to enjoy, and I think most 8 year olds could play it (but maybe not appreciate it very much). I'm 33 years old, and enjoy it too.

There are some small peices. I don't think it is suitable for younger than 3 years old.

A 10 year old would like it, but I don't think it would hold her interest for every long. I purchased one for my 7 year old and she quickly got bored with it.

My Daughter was 8 when I got this for here. She is now 10 and still enjoys it.

that's hard to say. I believe that would be more age appropriate but the quality of the train was disappointing. but once its set up your child would probably enjpy it---mine wants to investigate and that's not a good thing for this train. hope that helps

Absolutely! My son is 8 and he loves his. My husband and son both ply with theirs. So yes a 10 year old should have a great time. And these are a great teaching tool as well. They teach about electronics on a small scale but its all things that are applicable on a full scale automobile as well.

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

There are lots of activities to do in it so age wise I would think it is fine. However, if she is expecting the real book of boo boos, this is NOT it. This is much more of an activity pad than anything.

We bought it for our 10 year old grandson. He loved it! 5 years old might be ok, but you would have to set it up and give him some guidance on it.

Well, it is a really nice barn - at least I think so. My daughter loves it - I bought it for her when she was 7 or 8 and she is ten now and still playing with it. I think it would be fine - it is basic and I can't think of anything on it that would be harmful and it is made well so should be durable through the years. It would be a good gift - it also depends on how advanced your child is - however as I said my 10 year old is still playing with it so your 3.5 year old will get many days of play out of it! Hope this helps.

We have not given it to our ten year old yet. I am hoping it is the right age for her.

My son is 2.5 yrs old. He loves it but I feel he doesn't get full use out of the little details, like hoisting the sails etc. So I could only imagine an older child would enjoy it even more! If he likes pirates, ships or imaginative play, I think he would love it. I was really surprised by the quality. ...I hope this helps a little :-)

Hi! I bought it for my son who is 3.5 years old and he loves this very much. If your child is into Hot Wheel Cars and other varieties of trucks and cars I can imagine he'd have a good bit of fun with this. All levels of the Rig adjust to lower and off load the cars, it's well made, fun, great for imagination. I can easily see at that age though - depending - that it could be an item easily grown out of. Each parent knows their child best. The toy as I said is fantastic-O though. Hope this helps. Maybe something like a remote controlled car or some of those larger monster Hot Wheels Trucks would be better suited if you find this isn't to your liking. Good luck shopping. :) Hi!
