I believe there are no records of Jesus' age when he was visited by the three magi; he is only known to have been a newly infant.
ANSWER
>Jesus would have been between six months and two years old when the wise men from the east entered the house where Jesus and his parents where staying. According to Matthew 2:11, they were no longer residing in the stable. Herod had diligently enquired of the three men just how old Jesus was and from the information he received set the age for every male, two and under to be murdered (Matthew 2:16). Also Mary and Joseph had taken Jesus to the temple forty two days(six weeks) after Mary's purification and the circumcision of Jesus as required by the Lord as recorded in Leviticus 12:1-8, and as explained in Luke 2:21-22. It wasn't long after Jesus was presented in the temple that Joseph and Mary fled to Egypt taking Jesus for his own protection from Herod's murderous designs. This hurried exist from Jerusalem was directly brought about by the meeting with Herod by the wise men. One can reason that the visit to see Jesus was sometime after the temple visit because the family had to leave quickly after an Angel of the Lord had appeared to Joseph in a dream warning him and his family to flee(Matthew 2:13). Also one would expect that going to the temple would have been exceedingly important from a view point that the Lord would abide in every law as a part of fulfilling all righteousness to attain and live a perfect life. Also it had taken the three men considerable time to travel to Jerusalem from an eastern country, perhaps Mesopotamia where Nahor's descendants, the Grandfather of Rebekah, wife of Isaac lived. This was probably an enclave of righteous followers of God which the three wise men were.
Incidentally, nowhere in scripture does it state that three wise men visited Jesus. All that Matthew records is that 'magi' came from the East, with no idea of just how many there were. The common misconception that there were three comes from the fact that three gifts were brought, but any number of wise men could have come from 2 (as the word 'men' was used rather than 'man' )upwards.

Matthew 2:1-12 Though it doesn't specify the number of wise men who visited, nor the age of Jesus (it is assumed he was between the ages of newborn to 2 years of age, depending on with whom you speak.) It is assumed from the three gifts, gold, frankinscence and myhrr, that there were three Magi (wise men; magicians?), in later traditions called kings, and even given names. **It should be noted that they first approached Herod, who then ordered the deaths of all infants under the age of three.

The wise men - magi - that visited Bethlehem travelled there to see Jesus. Do not, the Bible does not tell us the number of wise men but three different gifts.

Were there three kings worshipping baby Jesus?
First of all, we don't know how many "kings" or wise men of the Magi there were. I know there's a Christmas carol that says "We three kings," but the Bible doesn't say there were three (only that there were three kinds of gifts that they brought). And it doesn't say what they said to Jesus, but Matthew 2 says "they bowed down and worshiped him." That was the typical response back then to royalty. Remember: they thought that he was a legitimate king, and so first went to the king's palace.
