What age is this most suited for?

My son is 4 and loves it, but for 10 and up, if they're used to playing the drums, you might want to go with a better quality drum than this one. Otherwise it's good up to a small 14 year old, probably.

I personally believe maximum age is 10-12 months, considering their weight, too. My 8 month old grandchild did not use it too much when first purchased (at 4-1/2 months) but began playing more with it at about 6 months. I was excited about getting the item, but afterwards I felt I made a mistake buying it since they didn't play with too much. It doesn't hold their attention for too long & you have to be careful not to "pinch" their thighs or fingers when sliding the tray off. Hope this helps others.

I bought this for my daughter when she was one. She is two now and still fits in it. I would say this is best for age 1-4.

I would say ages 2yrs-7yrs old. I have pics up of my 5yr old son and nephew jumping in it so you can get a better idea. hope that helps.

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

When child can carry on at least a limited conversation... Age doesn't matter, 4-14 and adults who like cool toys :)

We bought one for our two year old grandson, and he was able to make it work. I would say it's for age 2-5

It's more suitable for a 2-3 year old. I bought it for my 2 year old who is now 4 and is too big for it now.

Kids age 4 to 7 will probably enjoy it the most. Older than that, and they might think it too "babyish" for them.

We used it from 4 months and still use it every now and then (my son is currently 11 ½ months old). It is definitely a go-to toy when I just need to be hands free for a couple of minutes, but he's outgrown staying in it much longer than 5 minutes at a time. At 8 months, we probably used it several times a day still, but it might not be worth the $ at this point. I would be more concerned with the height. At 30 inches, my son is at the last height level, and I'm pretty sure that's the maximum recommended height, too. We'll probably pack it up right around his birthday...

I guess is a good option. I bought it for my nephew, but she is 2 years old, and for now she starts to play with this kind of things, but for a boy of 8 years I think is good.

It depends on the size and age of the child. This one really worked the best for us, though our son is close to 2 yrs. Hope this helped

We bought this initially when our son was about 18 months, but now he is three and is still using it, and our one-year-old can climb into it as well. I would guess that we will be able to use it till about age four or five.

10 years old is probably the right start. I've let 5-8 year olds fly it, but I helped by controlling up/down. Good news, he can crash it 50 times and not break a thing. Good learning experience.

that's hard to say. I believe that would be more age appropriate but the quality of the train was disappointing. but once its set up your child would probably enjpy it---mine wants to investigate and that's not a good thing for this train. hope that helps

Christmas present? I use it in therapy (I am a speech pathologist) with kids as young as 3, but I think you could use it with 2 year olds. 18 months might be a bit young as they may just want to put it in their mouths. It depends on the kid though. If you think the kid is really sharp then try it. If the child will be monitored while they play (you faciltate it) they may have fun with it, but 18 month olds don't really get the concept of toppings yet. So to sum up, I would wait until they are a bit older. Up to you.

The best ages for this toy would vary according to the maturity and goals of the child. I can see a youth of 6, enjoying it, on up to the age of 13-14, depending on the interests of the child.
