There isn't a definite age that Christians are baptized. In some denominations, they are baptized as babies. In others, they are baptized usually around high school age, but are not limited to that age. For Christians who are baptized later and not as babies, it is a matter of personal decision, each person has a different time that they feel 'ready' to be baptized and declare their faith.

Christians can be baptized at any age. A baptism is performed when a person accepts God into their lives, and this is a personal event for anyone, meaning that baptism happens to people at different ages.

What goes first baptism or confirmation?

It depends on when your diocese has chosen to celebrate the sacrament of Confirmation. In the United States, Confirmation can be celebrated anywhere between the age of reason (7 yrs) and age 16. So, if your diocese celebrates Confirmation in the second or third grade, then it will come before First Communion. But, if your diocese celebrates Confirmation in the eighth grade, then it would come after First Communion.
