Probably I was about 8 when I was deemed to be old enough to let myself in after school and amuse myself for an hour or so before my Mum or brothers got home. But even as young as 5 or 6, I was allowed to go to the store by myself or to the park. This was in the 70s.
Every kid and family is different.
