[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live with a 9.5 year old girl in 4th grade. Some days she is very tween like and other days she’s still a kid. So I’d say 9 is the earliest, but most likely by 10 for sure. Tween just means they are approaching their teenage years. Which to me is exactly what’s happening at ages 10-12. [/quote] +1. I’ve got a young 4th grader (will turn 10 right around the start of 5th grade). One minute she’s acting like she thinks she’s 15, the next 7 - she’s also small for her age and most likely won’t start puberty anytime soon. I like 10 as the start of “tween” as the earliest- but it’s not a term that needs to have an exact definition so I’m not sure why people are getting hung up on the cutoffs. [/quote]
