Hi. I've recently had my kid's playhouse raised up to about 5 foot off the ground and am thinking of purchasing these to go on a wall to climb up instead of a ladder. Would these be suitable for my two kids to use as foot and hand holds? My oldest s only 5 years old.

Screw on "crimps" are smaller holds that are used to build strength. Most clubhouse/jungle gyms use holds called "juggs". They are a lot bigger and easier to wrap your hand around. Juggs would probably be better for a five year old, unless you wish do develop a serious climber. (here are some nice mini-jugs from metolius http://www.backcountry.com/store/MET0253/Metolius-Mini-Jug-Hold-Set-5-Pack.html
