would this be suitable for a bright three year old?

I don't think so. She'll get use out of the blocks because they are colorful but it basically comes in 100's of pieces. You have to build the mansion by using the instruction book, which is the fun of it for kids who are focused enough. My daughter is 6 and loves puzzles, but this was difficult for her too.

I would not have a three-year old play with this because of the choking hazards. It comes with a lot of miniature accessories, like a hand dryer, for example, that a three-year old could easily put in their mouth.

Not really. It's been awhile since I had a 3 yr old. But I do believe mega blocks makes larger blocks for girls that are pink, purple and other light colors.

Absolutely not. A three year old should be in a rear or forward facing harnessed seat, not a belt positioning booster. Please check out this link. http://csftl.org/harness-or-booster-when-to-make-the-switch/

Hi Kimberly. No, i don't think a 3 year old would appreciate the effort of putting it together, and then playing with it. I'm thinking more like 5.I got this for my 6 YO nephew who loved it.

I would say no. I purchased this for an active 7 year old and she had a hard time getting used to operating it, falling a few times in the process. In fact, her 4 year old sister wouldn't play on it and said it was "too hard". I don't believe a 3 year old would have the dexterity required and may hurt themselves.

Yes, it is bright enough for studying. All three of my children are using it an no complaints.

Yes and yes...it's bright and clear for a young child. It's an excellent tool for teaching.

I would say it is better suited for the 3 year old. Our 6 year old has played with it but had commented that it is too 'baby-ish' for her. We found a different digital camera for her that worked well. Our 4 year old adores this camera though.

I wouldn't recommend it for a 2-3 year old, there are a lot of very small pieces. It's definitely better for older children. The durability is good. I had one when I was a little girl and 30+ years later it's still in my dad's basement. I purchased one for my 5-year old last Christmas. It's probably a better fit for children around 4-5 at least.

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 think a 3yr old would enjoy this. I would suggest 6/8 +. It is neat toy, but somewhat involved.

You're very welcome. It is very small and I think it's to advanced for a 2-3 year old. Hope he/she enjoys it

Start with a small set and see how it goes. My grandson was seven when I gave a set to him. I believe your three year old might enjoy putting something together even if it doesn't look like the picture on the box.

I think it would be perfect for such a use. They throw a fair amount of light at a short distance, so reading should be fine. I don't agree with the other users who said it's very low light. It would be way too bright as a night-light (IMO). It's not going to light up a room, but a kid doesn't need a lot of light for bedtime reading.

As a three and four year old, yes. I gave this to my child for her third birthday. I'm not sure how a younger toddler would manage.

Thanks for the question. Great idea. I think it is a bit large and might be a little awkward initially. However, I am sure that he will catch on very quickly how to operate it. It throws plenty of light and he will probably be quite enthralled with it. We have been very pleased with the item. Please let me know if you have any further questions.

I purchased it for a three year old and it was perfect. I think this would be too small.

I think this may be little too advanced for a 3 year old. It is a wonderful toy; very well made and amazing the way it moves and the sounds but I think I would wait until the child is about 6 years old. But I wouldn't hesitate to buy now.
