Is it good for a 5 year old

My son still rides his at 7!!! We live in the city and with the bumby sidewalks, etc. it's been just great! They really help them learn to balance and ride a "big boy" bike! My son is doing really well on his now, and I said to him, I think you are ready for a big boy bike and he said, not quite, I still love my Go Glider! I highly recommend it if you don't think your son/daughter is ready for a two wheeler!

Yes I bought this for my 5 year old and he was actually riding it (balancing) with his feet up on the pegs within two days. Once he had the confidence to balance he was on a pedal bike with no problems. Well worth the money in my opinion.

I would say yes. I bought it for my almost 3yr old who is now 5 and he has out grown it. each child is different though.

5 year old has been playing on it for quite some time now . He has never complained. So i would say NO

Yes it is good for 1.5 year old, although I ordered for my son after his second birthday. I could have ordered earlier if I knew about it that time. My son started liking animals a lot after he turned two, before that it was more of car stuff. There aren't very tiny things in it, smallest is the bush (appx. 1" x 3/4" may be) but yes, I would monitor a toddler 1.5 year old throughout his play.

Yes, I think a 5 yr old would like it. It was bigger then I thought it was going to be. The unit we have measures 4' 9" at the highest point and its 4' wide and 4' 9" long. It is easy to build and tear down quickly.

No it is too small for a 5 yr old. it is long enough but we don't think it could handle the weight.

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.

Yes. I bought this for my 3 year old. She's now 5, and still loves to play with it.

You know, I think that it might be okay for a 5 year old. I really loved them and so did the twins who are almost 3yrs. My other grandchildren were visiting and played with them too and they are girls 5 and 7.

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.

My son is 2 and he operates it just fine I wouldn't buy it for a 5 yr old unless they're small.

For a 5 year old its border line. Borderline in that they might be too big for it. It's perfect for the preschool set. Look at some of the scooters that have two wheels instead of three. A five year old might be ready to balance on the two wheels.

It is good for kids of 3-5 years old. I brought it for my 4 year old daughter. She loves to build it.

Depends on the kid but I think a 5 yr old should be ok specially if you spend a little bit of time upfront and played with her few times. This is a fun and educational game. She will enjoy it.

My daughter is almost three and its a good size with plenty of room to grow. I think it will be ok for your 5 yr old too.
