While it says it's for ages 3 and up, is it really appropriate for a 3-year-old? Looks like it's for older children.

I read it as being age appropriate for 7-12 year olds. Where do you see three?

Hi Kimberly. No, i don't think a 3 year old would appreciate the effort of putting it together, and then playing with it. I'm thinking more like 5.I got this for my 6 YO nephew who loved it.

It's a pretty easy set to put together. I think it depends on the child but 3 is a little young for it. Once put together it stays together well so it won't break apart when he plays with it.

My son is two and enjoys it but it might be a bit young for a three young old. He also has an imaginex plane that he likes that might be better suited for a three year old.

I bought this for my 4 year old grandson and it seems to be age appropriate for him. I would not recommend any younger and would not go past 6. that's just my opinion. hope this helps.

Yes it would be okay for 3-4 year old. My one year old likes it but doesn't understand the concept of it yet.

My 3 year old and 5 year old played with it for a half hour and haven't touched it since. It would be age appropriate if they like it as mine is gathering dust.

The manufacturer's suggested age is 3+ but this is not at all safe for a 3-year-old. In my opinion it is appropriate for a child who is at least 9. It is possible that a very careful 7-year-old could manage it. It has small parts and it's not particularly sturdy. It will not stand alone -- it requires a doll stand.

I bought it for my 3 year old and he loves it! I would say probably 2-4 is the best age range.

The age range listed on the box is grades 2-6, but I have used it with much younger children and they have enjoyed it. There are some small pieces and the box states that it should not be used with children under 3.

The box says it's for children 3+ years. There are small pieces I wouldn't trust a one year old with. I did buy this for my 2 1/2 yr old but watch her very closely with it.

It says for ages 1-3. I bought for my 1 year old grandson and he's big for his age. He'll be able to ride it for a few more years. He loves it!!! His older sister 4 who is a little small for her age rides it and looks like she'll be able to ride it for some time as well. Hope that helps.

I bought it for my younger grandchildren. My grandson instantly loved it, and he was about 15 months when I first bought it. My 2-year-old granddaughter likes it, too, but gets bored with it more quickly. It may a bit small for an average 3-year-old.

My grandson just turned three, and he loved it! But the older kids at his birthday party were having fun with it, too. Heck, I was having fun playing with it. I really think three to eight would be the optimal ages for this.

I think it is perfect for a 3 year old. I got it for my granddaughter and she is 18 months; I think she will most likely use it until she is 5 or 6.

I would say it is better suited for the 3 year old. Our 6 year old has played with it but had commented that it is too 'baby-ish' for her. We found a different digital camera for her that worked well. Our 4 year old adores this camera though.

I purchased this for my four year old. My twelve and nine year old play with him as does my two year old :) I would say it's best for 3-5 year olds.

I'm not sure but I have a son who turned two in October and I thought he would be old enough to play with this but I think it is more on the lines for ages 4 and up.

It says up to age 8, but I think it depends how tall/big your son is. My friends 4 year old uses it. I think realistically it's good till age 5.
