is this recommended for a five year old

NO, it is like a hot oven. You need to use hot pads. My 11 yr old uses it but even at that I am with her. It just is not a good thing to let little kids use.

I completely agree with the 2 previous replies. In no way does this bear any resemblance to an easy bake oven. I would strongly suggest supervision for any child under 12 yr old.

Never to use alone, however my three year old asked for this for Christmas last year and he loves to help me make muffins and cupcakes. It gets VERY hot very fast.

Hi, yes it will work for great for a 5 year old and should for a 3 year old. It is easy to pull back, no problem and with nice soft darts if they tend to 'aim' at each other no one will get hurt, lol.

I bought this for my 5 year old and I would say it was perfect and she is now 6 and still plays with it all the time. Hope this helps

Yes. I bought it for my grandson who was five at the time. It was his favorite gift

This is a child's toy and is not very fast, max 8 mph. It is a quality product though with steel framing and rubber tires. I recommend it for a 5 years old.

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

I bought this for a class of children who are 5 years old. I think it would be great for your 6 year old.

I think 5 year olds are pretty hip these days and could handle this. But my 20 year old grandson seemed to enjoy playing with the crank part. Kids will be kids. No guarantee your child won't use it as a toy.

Hi Brenda, my son is 5 1/2 and has played with this for about 2 years now I believe. It is still in good shape and I think it would be great for a 5 y.o.

I would say yes. I bought it for my almost 3yr old who is now 5 and he has out grown it. each child is different though.

You know, I think that it might be okay for a 5 year old. I really loved them and so did the twins who are almost 3yrs. My other grandchildren were visiting and played with them too and they are girls 5 and 7.

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.

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

Yes it would be good for a 5 year old. We have both the original and the Junior. Our 6 year loves the junior! She could have easily played it at 5. I hope you enjoy!

My daughter is almost three and its a good size with plenty of room to grow. I think it will be ok for your 5 yr old too.

It's a nice 'cuddle' doll but it might be a bit young for a 5 year old. I guess it would depend on the 5 year old.

Yes. I bought one for my 9 yr old. And just order 2 more for a 6 & 7 yr Olds. Not recommended for under 5. I would say. :-)
