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".

 Circle isn't circular December 18, 2008
The pieces are not cut out accurately enough, which means that it is difficult to fit them into the holes. The circle is particularly annoying. A circle is a circle and it should fit in the hole in any rotation, but because the piece is not cut accurately, the circle will only fit if you rotate it exactly right. This is very confusing for a child. The rectangle and oval won't fit if you turn them upside down and the square and triangle will only fit in the hole in one orientation.
We have another Melissa and Doug puzzle with farm animals that doesn't have this problem.
 SHE LOVES IT! December 16, 2008
This is the perfect gift for a one year old! She loves playing with it over and over! The Dr said to get her puzzles with 4-5 pieces! This is just perfect!! VERY VERY Sturdy and durable. Great buy for the money!
 Just a sticker November 10, 2008

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.
