A) Will the scarves stay put when walking around Disney World all day? B) Is the size okay for a 5yr old?

Yes, they will stay put and can be cut to accommodate smaller next areas. My wife wore hers as a scarf and tucked ends into her short

I concur with all the comments here. The size requires some padded enhancement for fit and comfort. I wore it for Halloween as is. It was fine taking it off throughout day. I had lot's of complements on it though.

I would definitely say yes. Of course, 15 bucks is worth a shot, especially for someone so important to you, but I can say that you most likely won't be wasting your time and money on this one. My son wore them for 2 hours straight at almost two years old. He went to watch monster trucks and he did great with keeping them on. They fit him perfectly as a toddler so keep that in mind for size! I hope it works out for you, they worked great for us!

I gave these to a three year old who is only 4 1/2 now. He still wears and loves them. They have some size to them and I would think, unless the 7 year old is quite large for his/her age, they would still be liked.

We live near Pittsburgh, PA. It gets cold very cold here some times in the single digits. When I used it for my granddaughter I never put anything underneath it, just the clothes she was wearing. I loved this for my granddaughter. I think you would be fine and wouldn't be disappointed in your purchase. If you are out for long periods of times like taking a walk ... I think you would need something else, but just going from your house to your car or your care into stores or taking to sitters you will be fine or even walking a few blocks. It is very warm inside.

We have a small 3 year old and she did fine at Halloween. I crossed the straps to help keep it up. It was a little long but manageable. We didn't go far and it'll fit next year for sure.

Yes, easily big enough for a 5-7 year old. They're quite thick though - maybe ok for cross-stitch. We used ours for lacing activities for 3-5 yos with no problems.

I would say Yes. My son is 5 and is a bit tall for his age. We purchased a Medium. It is a bit big. I think Rubies says that Medium is age 4-4.5' tall, so that would be correct. Note: I purchased this just recently and it WAS the whole costume. YMMV.

My child we bought the small for is 4. He is long, but tiny. The small costume works fine but we had to hem the legs because they were VERY long on him. The chest is a bit big, since it's hard, but it works. I think the small for your 5 year old would work well, just be prepared that you may need to take off some of the yellow above the boot.

Given that I have only bought one size, and I am a fully grown adult, it's difficult for me to recommend which one you should pick for your son. But, I did scan through the reviews to see which ones mention buying smaller sizes for their children. I came across a few that would at least come close to your son's statistics. The first one I found was bought for a 9 year old who was "Very tall" for her age, and they got her a medium. The reviewer said that if you buy a size perhaps slightly bigger than you were hoping for, the outfit comes with several straps that wrap around the waist and legs that can tighten it. (which I can confirm is true.) The only part that I've ever found to be loose is the upper chest region. I can't even seem to get that region to stay tucked in when I move around too much in the outfit. Also, another reviewer bought this for her 13 year old son who was 5'7 and 120 pounds and chose large. She said it was "a tad loose, but not too long." This is probably the example you were looking for, so listen carefully: Given the fact that you son is the same age as hers, and is both shorter and weighs less than her son, Medium might be a wiser choice - but remember I can't confirm that, I've never bought or tried any other side except for XL. At any rate, I think whether you pick medium or large everything will be fine. The medium might fit perfectly, and the large, if you decided to get that one, would at least be really comfortable, nonrestrictive to motor functions, and more importantly; he'd be able to continue using it as he ages and grows. So either decision you make I think you'll find good things about either of them. Hope I was of help.

I bought these for my 6 year old at school. We brought them home because they weren't needed, and my 4 year old wears them, too. They are a little big, but they don't slip off her head.

Hi Karina. I bought 1 for my 4 yrs old granddaughter. It had to be tailor because the size is to big for 3 yrs. My opinion is that this is a size 5/6 but look nice.

Well, we got it for our daughter who is five years old. They do stay on for the most part, but not 100% perfectly.

i used in disney and i have to put a shade made of one scarf, it was to sunny, and my baby was only six months old,if is justo to walk to the park is fine, i hope this help you, but even that i love the stroller, is full reclined, is high quality and is so easy to push,

Yes. They fit snug on my 8 month old but my 5 year old could also wear them so I wouldn't worry about them being too tight to be safe. We used ours on an airplane trip and at Disney World to keep from over stimulating the baby and they worked amazingly well!

Sure, it might be a little big. It does adjust though, both across the chest and the straps lengthen and shorten as needed. I would say if your 1yr old is walking well that this should work fine. I am very pleased with it myself. I hope that helps!~B.Oldaker

Yes, my kid is 5 and it fits him...maybe a little loose so I just make sure the strap is really tight. Fyi, the details are made of foam so be careful taking it out of the packaging. My son broke off the tail in the 1st 5 mins of opening the box.
