No it should not be too small for her...its a pretty big and my three year old grand daughter uses it just fine....don't think it would be a problem

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.

I think that a 5 year would like it if it's new to him. I don't know how long he'd be intrigued, as he would probably put pieces together as they are supposed to go! It would depend upon the child. The major positive about Lego is that it stays together instead of falling apart as soon as you pick it up! It also can be washed if needed. I bought the set for my 2 year old great-grandson, but I, his father, 3 uncles, a grandfather, and a great-grandfather are or have been in engineering, and have played with him since he could hold things. He loves it, and puts the pieces together in all kinds of ways, so it looks different as he plays. He's also fascinated with trucks, dump trucks, trains and such.

Not at all! My 2.5 yr old daughter loves it and her 8 yr old cousin was playing with it when he came to visit. Its just a good, durable toy.

I have a five year old Grandson that loves it. A friend of mine has a 3 year old that is really into it too. I think it's fun for any kid over 3- any younger might not be able to grasp the concept.

I bought that deluxe set for my 11 year old grandson and bought the simpler versions for my 4, 5, and 6 year old grandsons. I am sure that part of it is more complicated than others and it is a toy she can grow into gradually. I really have not checked how the kids are doing with these...they were Christmas gifts.

I don't think a five year old would have the motor skills to fly this. This is probably not a good toy for anyone under the age of 8-10.

I agree with the poster below... It's a great toy for a five year old, but I believe an 8 year old will be bored after five minutes. It doesn't have a huge amout of features beyond the three voice options and four barbie songs. The Barbie microphone and amplifier would be better for an eight year old, though more expensive.

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.

Yes I would say a smart 5 year old could play for a little bit.. subject wide range..fun game for a group

I think that it will be too small for a tall 5 year old. It moves pretty slow. (geared more for the smaller/younger girls). My little girl is 2, and she is not completely satisfied with the speed. Especially when she sees her older brother on his faster ride.

Hi Jeanne, I think so. I've bought it for my little baby, but I have other child (3 years old) and he plays with this toy too!!

I would not buy it. My two year old granddaughter has trouble with it because her legs are a bit long.. I think 5 years old is just too big..

Absolutely!!!! My daughter is now 5 and loves this toy. Wish I had gotten this for her when she was 2 so she could have enjoyed it more!

I bought it from Amazon and the recommended age listed was 1-5. I do not believe a 5 year old would be entertainedby this toy. More importantly, the toy did not stand up to a 2 year old! He loved it, but I will not replace it.

It would probably be too small for a 5 year old. Our granddaughter started using it at 18 months old.
