What do you think about this toy for a 7 year old? He's in 1st grade and average to tall for a 7 year old, but he covets this toy and still likes "lit

I bought this for my son when he was 1 an now he is 3, he still enjoys it but now he pulls the toy to his dirt pile, doesn't really pedal with it anymore. If I was hunting for a CAT digger, I might try something else. The older kids (ages 4-9) in our neighborhood really like just the backhoe with the seat on the back....I hope that helps

The best way to tell if it will fit is to give you our son's current "specs"... He is five years old and about 4 feet tall and weighs 56 pounds. He adores this toy! We bought it last year for his 4th birthday and has had no problem pedaling or operating this toy. Great fun!

I think it will be to small for a 7 year old. The chair is better suited for toddlers.

I think your almost 5 year old would love it. It has play value beyond the age suggestion and would help spur your almost 5 year old into different types of imaginative play. My youngest great-nephew, who is 4, loves it. But his older brother, who is 7, loves it too and together they play happily for a few hours. If those 2 high energy boys can actually play together for a few hours, it makes me believe the toy has lots of play value. I hope this helps.

As long as the 7 year old can read at a basic level, they will enjoy it a lot! Reading is required though to really make the game work.

I bought this for my 5year old grandson as a Christmas gift. He's still "performing" and having fun with it. I'd say yes, a 7 year old would like it. My grandson uses his when he plays his drums and sings or if he's just entertaining the family. Great memory maker.

We bought two of these for our 2 1/2 year old twin boys for Christmas, and they love them. They are bigger than they look, and they go fast (I have to run to keep up with them). Unless your boy is tall for his age, I would recommend getting a smaller one or holding off 6 months or so for this big of a quad. My boys started riding smaller quads at 1 1/2 years old so they were used to them and ready for this size. Good luck!

No not at all! He will enjoy it for a long time my almost three year old is three feet tall has always been really tall for her age. She won't be three till sept. She plays on this daily. Hourly. It's in our living room in the winter and spring and outside for summer and fall here in virginia. We got it when she was one. She's not bored of it yet. She sits up there n looks at books and plays with toys. She uses it as a stage to sing songs from. And still climbs under it, through it, and on it and enjoys the slide very much. Depending on the clothing the slide maybe faster. She goes down fast and loves it! Seriously one of our best purchases. Hope this helped :) No not at all!

My grandson was 7 1/2 yr old when we gave it to him. I would say that is about the youngest I would go. I believe children up to 12 years old would get lots of enjoyment and a great learning experience from this item.

in my opinion, he may be a little big for it. I usually give it as a 1st bday gift, although 1 1/2-2 appears to be the best age for it. I am not sure of the height from the ground b/c I give it as gifts. That being said, I have seen it used up to the age of 4, just depends how tall and flexible the kids are

We bought this for out granddaughter for her 2nd birthday. I think it might be too tall or move too easy for a 1 year old. It is a great toy, tho.

I actually bought this toy, for my 3 year old. He loves it! But he also is playing with his 6 year old brother. I think it just depends upon your child and what his interests and likes are. But I would buy it again for my 3 year old.

My 7 year old boy rides it just fine... and my 13 year old son has also puttered around on it. The 7 year old actually prefers it over his Razor scooter (to our surprise!). Be aware, though - the handle bars are a SET height - no raising or lowering like you can on the Razor.

I got this for my son who was turning 7 because he thought it would be so much fun. I would say he played with it for about 25 minutes before he got bored. I think younger kids would like the singing and dancing and having the furby dance to music. If you get the app for your phone then you might need to help him/her with feeding the furby. I just don't think it was worth the money for my son so I would think 4 or 5 would be a good age.

I got ours for a 1 year old and it is fine for him and probably for another few years, for a 3 year old I would go with something bigger so they can grow into it!

My boys ages 3, 5, and 7 all love it. They can all use and play with it. My 7 year old is only really interested in telling the Dino commands. My 1 year old is too young, though he does crawl over to it sometimes.

If he likes these types of puzzles or games, and can't break things easily, then yes it is suitable for a 7 year old boy. My only concern would be that he may be a little too young for this because I would recommend this for age 10 and above.

Does the child watch the TV series (which has ended now)? If so, this is a very good replica of what they will see on TV. There are delicate parts on the toy, but I think a 7-8 year old should not have a problem playing and enjoying the toy.
