Is this appropriate for a five year old girl?

I am a teacher. I bought this book to teach my 12 years old students. It was too easy and not appropriate to the well informed nowadays youth. I think it is more appropriate to the 5 to 10 years old kids.

Hey Joan, this would probably not be as good as the test tube kit. It has easier experiments and they are more tactile (5 year olds love to feel and see) it makes snow, grows matter, etc. This physics one was a little more advanced on it's demonstrations.

Yes, my 7 yr old & 5 yr old did the experiments together. As long as someone can read the instructions.

I guess not. It is satisfying my 6 years old boy but might be too childish for your girl.

I think it would be too small for a 5 year old. S/he would fit, but the sponge is thin and so at that size and weight it would not give good support .

No - we actually purchased this before our girls turned one and they loved it. I think it is appropriate for a 1 year old and up!

I bought one for my 13 year old and she has no problem with using it. I would say a 5 year old might need supervision mainly on preparation of the cupcakes. The inside of the cupcake maker does get hot so taking them out your 5 year old might need assistance.

Yes - perfect size for a 5 year old. Funny you should ask as my daughter who is turning 7 in March is out growing hers and we just discussed getting her a bigger one. I also got the Hello Kitty (furry) helmet on Amazon

I think she would be able to use it, the packaging says it's up to age five.

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!

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.

Honestly I'm not sure but it would be too small for a 5 year old. It's not very big.

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!

Yes it would be appropriate in my opinion. Our grandson will be 5 and we bought this for him last year and he still spends hours playing with it. It is a great buy and very well made.

My daughter is 5 years old and it fits her well. It's also extendable so that it can grow with her...until she wants a new one lol

Yes but I would say it is a little young...my daughter is 5 and likes it but it would be perfect for a 3-4 yr old.

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.

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.

A five year old could "use" it but it would depend on the child as to whether they could Play it or not. I would say 7-9 is probably a good age to introduce a child to this if they had no musical background. Saying that, it is an instrument you could purchase/acquire and play with around them and they may be able to pick it up at a much earlier age. Well built, but not a "toy".
