Would this stapler be suitable for a 5 1/2 year old? Absolutely under supervision at all times.

I suppose so. It is small and safe. Not enough space to staple a finger or anything, no sharp edges, etc.

We have two of these staplers, one short and one long and they work beautifully. Never had a problem with it. It does require specialty staples however

Hi as long as he has adult supervision and u don't but the original tools it is perfect, my nephew was 5 when he got his and loves it.

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

I have this in my daycare center. I don't think it can be stapled up. I don't feel that the paper would be thick enough to hold it without sagging.

Hi I bought this for my wedding and my ring boy pulled my flower girl who Is 5 years old..... It worked fine, it did wobble a bit but worked out great. I am sure a 1 year old would be even easier to pull

Hi! Unfortunately, I am on vacation and not in my classroom. I am unsure how far you can adjust the staple. I do recall at least 1" to 1.5". I won't return to work until Jan 2nd. so I cannot tell you for sure until then.

At that age I'd say possibly. My 5 year old doesn't quite have the strength to push the red button. He weighs 45 pounds

It would not be an issue. I am only 5.4 and it works great! My younger nephews that are shorter than me use it too and it works like a charm for them.

It worked fine for my very small 5 year old. I'd go with this one, for sure, and it will last many years.

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

I'm not sure how big your five year old is but it seems like it might be small. I use this for my 2 year old and his sister who is 10 mos.

Short answer...I don't know.Slightly longer answer...I wouldn't push it. In my experience, this is not a truly "heavy duty" stapler.

I wouldn't, unless you could supervise all the time. I think a toddler would be to rough with it.

It is definitely for smaller kids. Probably best suited for kids 2-5, but if you have a tall 5 year old they would probably be disappointed.

I have not tried anything but 1/4" staples - I wouldn't try bigger ones because I'm sure they'd jam the stapler.

I really wouldn't go more that 5 pages and that's pushing it. It's kinda delicate be works good for now. I have to break a quarter of a standard staple row.
