I want to know how old the marshmallow kids were when Mischel did the experiment.

(Looks like they were 4 or 5 years old. This write-up says they were preschoolers: https://www.simplypsychology.org/marshmallow-test.html)

Indeed, some of these experiments in my reading I've been trying out on our 9th/10th graders. That one would not work!
