will it work for an 18 month old?

Depends on child and if they fit his/her arms. My daughter is 30 years old with CP and they work for she loves the water. Still need to watch and keep a good eye on them.

They were great for a four year old who is very comfortable in the water. Eighteen months is young but if he/she is comfortable in the water I would think these would be good to have for now and the future. Our 15 month old had a good time in one of the floats with a seat but he was really just floating happily - not trying to swim.

In my experience, I wouldn't suggest this for a child so young. Look for a vest or suit that will keep them afloat or a ring that goes in the pool.

You'd want to get the dimensions and see if it's large enough. I bought it for our grandson who is 18 months and he fit on it fine. It's very sturdy but I would check the size in regards to your child.

Yes, it's perfect for 18 month. We start to play in 10 month and now he really enjoy it. We are 20month

Might be a little hard for an 18 month old. I'd recommend a puzzle with pegs at that age. I don't think an 18 month old has the coordination required to use the fishing rods. My daughter started puzzles around that age (she got her first puzzles her second Christmas when she was about 18 months and they were simple peg puzzles)

I would think so. The box says 3 years and up, but I've learned with my grandchildren that some of those age suggestions are 'off'. I think it depends on the child. Anyway, my grandson isn't 3 yet, but about a year older than your 18 month old. I think at 18 months, we would have had to help him a little bit longer, but yours sounds like my grandson. He already could figure out what things would fit what - sounds silly, but I have one of those wooden rocking chairs that is an antique because it was mine when I was a toddler. Well, at Easter 2 years ago, while playing with the plastic eggs, he took the egg apart and looked at it and the top of the chair - and then put the egg over top that rounded part and it fit perfectly. He loves tools and blocks and anything to put together, and just seems to have an eye for what fits or how to put things together. Let me know if you get it and your 18 month old enjoys it! Also, Amazon has always been good on the rare occasion I needed to return an item, so there is that, too.

This device can be defeated by a 18 month old. That was my experience. It might work if the fit is perfect - whatever that is. But a good stiff pull will open my basement door secured with this. I think it is time for simple solution of a cord tied to eyelets on the door and frame with a simple shoe bow knot that can be untied from either side with a simple pull with the door opened an inch or two.

I believe so - my granddaughter is eleven months old and has been using it for two+ months and we plan for her to use it for some time to come!

Yes, I bought this for my granson who at the time was 13 months, he is a tall baby but not tall enough. He is now 18 months was able to start jumping on this about a month ago. It is top heavy so he tumbled over the head unless you held him on it. He is now able to jump around like no tomorrow. It is a wonderful toy but I would recommend for children over 16-18 months.

Honestly, I would say its too small. Its a perfect size for my 18 month old. When my niece, who is three, comes over, it feels even a little small for her. I would look for a taller and larger set for a 5 year old.

It depends on how old they are. My 18 month old has plenty of room for herself but not enough for another.

It works great for a 1-2 year old. Anything older and it might be too small (I'm having to upgrade this year)

It was bought for my 3 yr old grand-daughter and her mother says it would not fit an 18 mo old. Sorry.

Hi- NO way! My son is 90th percentile at 18 months- I wuld say that you can use this crib up until almost 3 years old- it is worth the $!!

My daughter was a small 18 year old. We got the larger one and it has worked well!

how did it work on your 18 month old? Mine is 16, 25lbs. was wondering if it would work. He's always in the water and loves water....

not gonna work for you most likely. its a great stroller, but the back seat is more a bench with a seatbelt, not really what a 18 month old can handle

Ours is currently in storage (we are moving) so I am not sure about the exact weight, but yes, an 18 month old can totally maneuver it. We bought it for our 18 month last year and he never had an issues.
