what age is appropriate for this book?

I think ages 4 - 24 months. Our granddaughter is only 2 1/2 months old so we haven't had much experience with it yet. As soon she is able to hold it and touch the different textures and fabrics of the tails, I know she's going to love it. I think it's a good book to grow with because you could attach it to the stroller or car seat too. If you like cats, you'll love this little book.

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.

I can't remember for sure but I think for the 4.3 they recommended between 4 and 6 years of age I got it for my grandson who is 4 and it was perfect for him you put the child age in and only content come up for they age

The box says ages 4 to 99. It depends on what a kid is into, I think it's be great for an eight year old.

I would say 8-10 for begginer scientists. My son was within age range (11) but was a little bored with the experiments. Definitely for the younger age range.

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.

Independantly I would probably say the youngest would be 5, but that is allowing the kid to write the story in their own handwriting. If you are transcribing their story for them, you can go as young as you want. I have also worked on one of these kits with kids up to 11 years old and they really enjoyed having the published book at the end.

I would say appropriate for ages 1&2 years old. It does come with a carrying case & mallet.

I bought it for a 6 year old. Her mom had just started University courses and was on the computer a lot, so I thought this might be fun for her "to work" with mommy. Since real computers have now entered many classrooms, I'd say for kids no older than 7 or 8 years old.

I am a teacher. I bought this book to teach my 12 years old students. It was too easy and not appropriate to the well informed nowadays youth. I think it is more appropriate to the 5 to 10 years old kids.

Yes, ages 5-10 seems correct. Some reviewers mentioned letting three-year-old play. That's too young due to threat of choking if they put it in their mouth. Even kids who don't eat things anymore may still experiment with putting it in their mouth and accidentally swallow it. Why take a chance?

I don't know the age group suggested on the box, but I think it would be fine for kids 8 and up. To do well, some basic understanding of probabilities is needed, but my nieces and nephews aged 8-14 love it!

I bought it for my 6 yr old grandson and it is a little by. It would likely be better for ages 10 and up.

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

Personally my 4 year old uses it nicely. I feel it could be used up to a 10 year old. So 4-10 would be my answer!

Depends on the child but I'd say no .... closer to 5 should be the starting age
