Educational fun!

1-21-2009 - by GMa Sue from Lincoln, NE

Three-year-old grandson knows T-rex, stegosaurus, etc. so loves finding the pieces for each. Easy to put pieces together and they stay. Pleased with storage and Grandma can sort the pieces now that she knows the secret on the back.

Great Puzzles for a number of reasons!

The fact that they come in a box for easy cleanup and taking on trips is awesome! There are shapes identifying each of the 4 puzzles on the backs of the pieces so that children can sort the pieces when putting them away and figuring out which puzzle is which. The pieces stay stuck very well and are of good quality. The box becomes a surface to put the puzzle together on and to display it. The size is small enough to pack up in a backpack to take along. My daughter is 4 and loves this puzzle pack!
