We purchased this as a gift for a friend's 4 1/2 yr old son. A few weeks later, our children had the opportunity to use it at his house and they LOVED it. In fact, they had so much fun with the different games on it that they decided to buy one with their Christmas money. My 4 1/2 yr old son and 2 1/2 yr old daughter each can use it on their own and there are games for each of them that are developmentally appropriate. Re: its durability, the VTech notebook even stands up to my one year old's preoccupation with throwing it on the floor :-).

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 5 year old son. He loved playing with it and he loved having us watch him play it. He took it to our family get together and my neice and nephew who are 4 and 7 also loved it. They would take turns playing the games and argue over who got to play with it next. I also have a daycare and the children all love taking turns with it. It is a little advanced for my 2 year olds with some of the games however, we seem to be able to find something for everyone. This was a good buy!

Screen size too discouraging. My 6 year old was so exited to have a toy computer. His first complaint was I hardly see what I'm doing. Does not realy like playing with it.
