Would you give this to a four year old?

[desperateforsleep2]

Bought on a 3 for 2, when I got home and took the sticker off I noticed it says 7+ years. Would it really damage 4 year old's nails? Should I return it or go ahead and give as a gift?

Once I got the ok from their parents fine. I wouls be more worried about spills rather than nail damage to be honest.

My 4 year old would love it

No, but not because of the 7+ thing, I just don't buy my DD year sparkly princess stuff

Someone bought my five year old this set. I wasn't keen and discreetly hid it away. I'm not happy for little girls to use what I consider to be adult style products. If the parents are ok with it then, fine.

No, I think nail polish is not for 4 years old. DD had it occasionally with water based one when she was 5-6. But then I do not wear it so DD didn’t really see it as something normal.

If you intend it as a gift I would check with the parents and don’t be offended if they don’t want it.

No, don't risk it for someone else's child. Put it by in a drawer, somewhere cool, and it can be at a later date for someone else.

No I wouldn’t.

I don’t think nail polish is as interesting as other toys out there and I don’t think it’s appropriate for a young child.

It’s also controversial- some will be fine won’t it others absolutely wouldn’t so I wouldn’t risk it as a gift.

I got something similar for dd2 for her 4th birthday recently. Never understood the fuss about nail varnish.

I wouldnt give to a 4 yr old. To young for nail polish and plenty of more appropriate gifts.

We had ‘piggy paint’ for my dds when they were really small, it was all natural water based polish and made me feel a bit better, but in all honesty it didn’t last long before they were using my normal polish.

I would perhaps get for my own dd at 4, but wouldn’t gift to another child unless I checked with their parents first.

Thanks all!

Yeah. It's only a bit of nail polish. 4 year old live to be creative so I think it's great.

I learned this the hard way. No I would not give this to a four year old. It will go everywhere and the girls parents will not be pleased! Age 7 is just right. Those peelable ones are great however. You can buy those from JML/amazon.

Personally I don't buy my child nail varnish. I don't like to place emphasis on looks.
