what age is recommended?

The toy states "6 and up". My six year old daughter can't quite manipulate the toy enough to get any real enjoyment. My 10 year old nephew can, however. I would buy this item for 8+. If the kid is really into puzzles, maybe 6.

The box says 6 and up. Certain 6 years olds can do it, but the end is tricky, an older child may find it easier.

The box says 6+, but it has some complexities and can be a little frustrating, so I think it would have to be a pretty calm & collected 6-year-old to use it! 10+ might be a more realistic age.

Any age! My kids were 5 and 6 when I got theirs. But they would have been appropriate at a younger age as well and I'm sure they will appreciate them for at least a handful more years.

I bought it for my sons 1st birthday. He pushes the buttons and plays with the digger. He hasn't ridden on it yet without help. I would say the "recommended" age would be at least 2, maybe 3. Hope this helps!

The label says "For children under 2 years of age - consult doctor". So age 2 and up. :)

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.

I would say 3 or 4 years of age and up. Also, nice for adults and others under stress

I'd say 8+. Maybe 10+. Kids younger than 8 will have problems. Adults will enjoy as well.

I believe 8 years and up would be appropriate. Of course, it also depends on spelling ability and vocabulary.

Ages 7 and up would be best. My 5 year old nephew tries to play, but it's pretty difficult for him.

Personally I think 7-12. But more mature 5 and 6 year olds could do it and like it too.

I would say best ages are 3 - 5. My grandson is 3 so I know we will get our money's worth

I would say it is appropriate for ages 2 to 5 years old. We have grandchildren that range in age from 1 to 7 years old. The one-year-old is just a little too small for it and the seven-year-old is seems too big for it.

Below the product description, the recommended age range is listed as 6 months to 3 years.

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 have taught kids from about 8yr to 14yr. I would say it is 10yr+ with some help. 12yr+ would be ideal.

I own the game and I would say about 8+, or really any child who is adept at using a DS and can read words with 10-12 characters and understand. It does demand a decent understanding of the English language and a basic understanding of how towns work and what "ordinances" are and things like that. Nothing is inappropriate or bad for young eyes/ears but it takes a good amount of knowledge to decipher the directions and conversations.That being said, if you plan on helping the child out with reading and things and play time, it's perfectly fine for any age :).
