Could a 5-yr-old use it?

Probably, because it is small and point and shoot. Although the extra buttons and settings could be a problem

If she was a 5 year old that would listen to who was showing how to use it; yes.

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

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.

Sure. They can use this for yrs. to come too. I have an afterschool daycare and the youngest is 6. She uses it no problem.

It can easily be used for a 5 year old. Our 7 year old granddaughter uses it all the time. The only problem we have with it is that the way the post sticks through the mat. Since we move it around a lot it is always droppin( the center rod. But that also makes it easy to store flat. So it's up to you what's important.

My kids do use it. Its not a problem. But my kids are older 13 and 9. Have been using it since 2 yrs. Now

Absolutely - yes, I would give it to a 3.5 year old... the one I bought was for my 4 year old niece (on her birthday), but I would've had no problem giving it to her 6 months prior.

I gave mine to a 5 year old and now it is sitting on his bureau...........I would say no to a three year old........it is a bit delicate and the controls could be a problem.

I would not recommend this Furby Boom for a 5 yr old, as stated on package for ages 6 or 7+. Just because something is cute doesn't mean it is an appropriate toy for a child younger than he age recommended for. We as adults need to monitor our child's learning tools/play toys.

Yes, actually a 5 year old could play on this set. It is really fun, and in that you can play them with a headset so as not to get the rest of the family, or the near by neighbors upset while your 5 year old is learning to play!

Absolutely!!!! My daughter is now 5 and loves this toy. Wish I had gotten this for her when she was 2 so she could have enjoyed it more!

I gave this toy to my son on his 1st birthday.... He is 4 now and has really put some good use to it over the years. I don't think there is any reason why a 1.5 year old shouldn't play with it.

No, it would be frustrating and could not be handled by a five year old. This is something for someone much older. Wait about 12-13 years.

No, this item is meant for very young children. I would say up to 5 years old.

Yes. I bought one for my 9 yr old. And just order 2 more for a 6 & 7 yr Olds. Not recommended for under 5. I would say. :-)

Yes, I believe a 4 year old could. The button isn't very hard to press and is fairly big. My son was 5 and had no problem.

I think so. I got it for my 10 year old and it allows for setting the drum pads at any height and spacing. I'm sure it would be fine for a 5 year old. Plug it into a small practice amp or some ear buds and you're good to go.
