I bought this drone for my daughter to help her with her hand eye coordination. It is also a good alternative to video games and iPad! She loves it. It's easy to set up and control, and on two batteries it can fly for up to 15 minutes, which is more than a 6-year-old's attention. It works great indoors and outdoors. Due to its light weight, however, it is not so easy to handle in windy weather. Highly recommended for children aged 6 to 8 years.
