Advantages: An interesting puzzle for children

Disadvantages: none

Come on lets look at this playground puzzle from Orchard toys.
This puzzle is a thick board puzzle with 50 pieces. It measures 59cm by42 cm.
This puzzle is suitable for children aged between 3 and 6 years old. Maybe a bit older depending on a child's development.

I like this puzzle as it is a picture of things on it that most children will be familiar with, There is a slide in the picture , some rocking toys, a seesaw, sand pit , swings , roundabout, looks like an ideal park in a very green setting with grass and trees. There are lots of people in the park too. Boys and girls on the apparatus, babies in buggies. There is a picnic table with a mum and dad. Someone is lazing on a blanket in the sun. Everyone is having fun. There are litter bins and a small pond with a couple of ducks on it. You can look at this picture and discuss it as your child makes the puzzle. Talk about the colours, count the children, and name the playground apparatus. Ask your child about their favorite toy in the playground. There are so many things in this picture to start a conversation and discussion with,

We must remember this is not just a picture it's a puzzle come on help me make the picture. This puzzle is a straight sided rectangular puzzle the pieces a reasonable size. Not a first puzzle but it is fairly easy. . The colours and design and shape of each piece give a clue as to where it fits.

This puzzle is good will help increase your child's concentration, will help develop reasoning, sequencing. Help develop eye hand coordination and spatial awareness too. Completing the puzzle will give satisfaction and a sense of achievement. Remember do praise your child.

This puzzle is fairly strong and you can wipe it clean if it gets messy.

Would I recommend this toy? Yes

Orchard toys are very good toys they make many other toys and some other puzzles see the site. For further information and Christmas toy present ideas.
