Product Description Preschoolers will learn their very first shapes with this bright, bold puzzle. Extra-large knobs make it easy for small hands to remove each brightly colored piece. Pull out the pieces to reveal matching full-color pictures underneath. This super-sized, solid-wood puzzle with extra-chunky 1/2" thick pieces is the perfect first puzzle. Measures 12.5" x 12.5" x 1.7".
Just a stickerNovember 10, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great idea, good-sized knobs, but no match for a drooling toddler. It would be more appropriate for the wood to be painted directly instead of the use of a sticker. The hand jigsaw work also means that neither the circle nor the square fit very well when turned... making it less educational... unless it's worth learning that overpriced products made with cheap labor produces poor results.
Very cute and functional.September 23, 2008 My son loves this. The knobs are perfect size for those clumsy hands to hang on to. He has learned how to fit the shapes in and I think it helps that behind all the shapes is the color that goes there to help with color recognition as well as shape. He has peeled a large portion of the paper off the back (luckily it wasn't the front).
Great Puzzle!July 28, 2008 I got this for my son when he was 10 mos. old. He loved it right from the beginning. Now at 11 mos., he can fit all the pieces in and knows where each one goes. It's held up to lots of chewing and is still in great shape. I'll definitely be getting more of these puzzles.
Great toyJune 11, 2008 I am a big fan of Melissa and Doug puzzles. My daughter is 14 months and this is a perfect toy for her. Puzzles are great toys to encourage problem solving skills and Melissa and Doug craft puzzles that will endure the test of time with toddlers. Two thumbs up!

This puzzle is great for little ones. Once they have mastered the puzzle placement, you can then work on puzzles and shapes. Be careful with babies putting the pieces in their mouth, the paint chips.
