This is a wooden tray puzzle that we have at work from John Lewis it is a matching geo board, it is made from wood from replenishable sources. I am sorry I do not have the measurements to hand.
This shape puzzle board will cost you £7.00 at John Lewis

This puzzle board is a natural wooden plank quite thick that has 5 shapes cut into it so that the .insets puzzle pieces will fit into them. This is a substantial puzzle will last a long time.

A red circle a yellow square, a green triangle orange rectangle, blue oval. These pieces are a good size for little hands to pick up and hold to see, feel the shape.

These puzzle pieces have a large natural wooden peg attached so that your child can use this to place the puzzle piece in place. These pegs on puzzles encourage your Childs pincher grip that they need to hold pencils for writing.

Suitable for a child aged 1 and over this puzzle is good for a nursery setting or a special needs school. For home yes maybe but your child will soon outgrow it.

This puzzle is good for developing fine motor skills, for that pincher grip. It is also a good way to help your child learn to concentrate to sit and do a task. It is quite simple to do so should not take them long. . This puzzle is good as it will help your child recognise shapes and colour. While you do this with your child, name the shapes and they will soon repeat you and learn the names of shapes.

I have used these inset pieces on paper to draw round, your child could do this then colour them in.

If you are going to buy a shape puzzle this puzzle is a really good simple and sturdy one I would recommend it.
