Why is it recommended for 8 yrs and up

Likely, it is the stationary aspect of the height. It is sturdy but I would recommend it be used with supervision. The chalkboard could be repainted with the real chalkboard paint if that is a key feature you are going for. Our three year old grandson uses the paper that rolls down from the top and water colors with it. He has spent many happy hours painting.

Not sure why but I bought this for my 5 and 7 year old nephews. They use it for homework and to play. They love it!

The legs are not adjustable on the Easel. I personally wouldn't recommend it, as you can barely see any writing on the fake chalkboard.

I think it's a typo. We bought this for my son at age 5 and it was perfect for him then, even now, at almost 7. '8 yrs and up' can't be right. �

I'm not exactly sure why. I think it's great for ages 2 years and up. My 2 1/2 year old niece plays with it all the time.

8 months is pretty old for this one. Try level 2 or maybe even 3 of dr. Browns.

I bought this for my son last year, age 10. I would recommend it for ages 8-13.

This activity is very appropriate for an 8 year old. It has a nice age span of about 6 to 12. I bought it for my granddaughter in June. My girls had one 30 years ago and wanted it for the granddaughter!

I'd say that it's good for a child 7 yrs and up. My son is 8 and has been playing it for a while.

It is safe for ages two and up. My two-year-old and seven-year-old both take this product. It is very effective and no side effects.

It is especially good when we reach the years over 60. I'm in my seventies, and have been using it over a decade and I think it makes a worthwhile difference in my skin's looks, and the more important ideas is that it protects my skin from sunburn and sun damage. That's what's really important!

Ages 18 years and over is OK to use. Less than 18 years - talk to your doctor first

Yes, I think so. It is fairly heavy duty, but that's a good thing. If you train the 8 yr old and revisit every few months they should be fine. Keep in mind that the 8 yr old will be 9 next year and 10 the year after, etc. You are buying this product for an emergency that may come years in the future or never at all. I would say, yes, get it. You'll sleep better with the peace of mind.

It says at a different spot on the page that this is for 8yr and up. That seems much more likely.

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.

I would say it depends on the child. I would also think typically for a child at least 5 years old but better suited for a child with better dexterity. More suitable for a child 8 years or older.

no, it should be good. I had my 8 and 6 yr old do it and my 4yr old neded help with it. It should not be too easy or boring for 8yr old.

Jane, that is the reason I'm buying for my 8 year grandson. He like to build things. At 8 it may take a little help but I don't think it will take much.

It is for kids ages 8 and up. But I think younger kids could use it as well.

My son is 6 and it fits him good But once he started drum lessons we have realized it's too small. To play on its fine for him but definitely not if your interested In learning to play well. I would say go the next step up for anyone over 8 years old.
