5 out of 5 stars Great Puzzle(s)   March 10, 2010

My son received a different version of this type of puzzle by Mellisa & Doug, and he loved it. When he developed an obsession with lions and tigers, we felt this would be a perfect puzzle for him. HE LOVES IT.


5 out of 5 stars very nice and fun puzzles   March 9, 2010
Oana Tudusciuc (Pasadena, CA)
Granted, they were a little smaller than I thought, but they are a real treat. My 2 year old loves them, dinosaurs are anyway an all-time favorite, and they have been in constant use since we got them. After a week of playing though, one piece of a puzzle cracked (my daughter stepped on it in the excitement), and I glued it with crazy glue, but not sure it's going to actually hold.
Other than that, the colors are beautiful, the details and complexity of the scenes are adequate for a 2 to 5 year old, and I love that you can make other games with these puzzles (sort them based on the shape that's drawn on the back of each piece).

All in all, I highly recommend it.

I bought this puzzle set for my 4 year old son and 2 year old daughter. The 4 year old can, on his own, assemble the puzzles. My 2 year old daughter does it with lots of help. The point of puzzles is to develop spatial reasoning skills and the Melissa & Doug puzzles are a good choice because the colors are sharp and the animals have interesting details. Would highly recommend this product to parents who are looking for a great educational and fun toy for their kids!

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my 2 and 3 year olds. It is a little advanced for my 2 year old, but my 3 year old loves it and plays with it almost every day. They are true jig-saw puzzles, so they are challening, but small enough that they aren't too hard. My 2 year old did chew on one and it stood up to her pretty well.


5 out of 5 stars Great for my 3 year old twins   January 22, 2010

The first few times I brought out these puzzles, the kids weren't really sure what to do. But now that they have the hang of them, they love them! My daughter has even figured out how to sort them back into their puzzle box (each puzzle has a different shape on the back for easy clean up).

I love how everything can be stored neatly in the box.

My twins just turned 3, to give you a better idea on their age.
