i heard once that if the number is ten or less you have to write it out but if its 11 and beyond you can just do the number

i have heard that you need to write it out up to 100, but i would personally just write all numbers out to be safe.

To indicate ages in years, you use the number, numeral or written, and the words "year" and "old". Connect them all with hyphens.

Examples :

Someone who is "12 years old" is a 12-year-old or a twelve-year-old. The word "child" in this case would be understood even if it isn't used. This is similar to an item that is twelve years old, such as a twelve-year-old car.

If you have two numbers next to each other, spell one out, so that you could have 11 twelve-year-olds or eleven 12-year-olds at a party.

Various style manuals suggest when the numerals (10, 12) should be used, or when the number names should be spelled out. The AP Style Sheet insists that ALL ages should use numerals, not written out. Book publishers often have exactly the opposite view. But all are subject to different rules for different types of formal writing.
