Our daughter is 18 months old.  When the table arrived it only took my husband about 40 min to put together (with very little assistance from me) The first day we showed it to her she ate lunch at it and then we had some friends over and all the kids wanted to sit at it and play.  Our nephews who are 5, 8 and 10 also came over and they all could also fit at the table!  I highly reccommend it.
