Product Description
This hand-painted, playfully styled Jumbo Puzzle is sure to capture and keep the attention of curious young minds. The thick, chunky wooden puzzle pieces fit neatly into their spots on the colorful board and also stand up for additional pretend play. Puzzle features full-color images beneath each piece to guide little ones. Measures 12"H x 11"W x 0.8"D.
I am a big fan of M&D toys - they are generally of high quality and seem to be hits with my boy/girl twins. As other reviewers have noted, the decals on the pieces of this puzzle do come off if they get wet/chewed on...so not good if your toddler is teething, or just likes to put things in his/her mouth still. But besides that, I really like this puzzle - my kids love to play pretend with the vehicles, making different sounds for each type. The "wells" that the pieces fit in are a bit shallow, so for younger toddlers (mine are 18-months), it can be a little difficult to get the pieces to stay in. I still like Melissa & Doug Large Shapes Jumbo Puzzle as a basic first puzzle for young toddlers.
My only issue with the new Melissa & Doug puzzles is that they are no longer painting the face and the backs of the pieces. They were much nicer before! But I guess it saves in manufacturing costs...so it's not all bad for those of us trying to conserve. It's also less paint to worry about your child ingesting, though I wonder what chemicals are in the wood itself? :/
Little ones love these puzzles, though! My daughter was really into them very early on, around 1 yr old, but my son didn't like them much until about 18 mos. So if you introduce these and they show little or no interest (other than chewing on the pieces!) then put them away for a while and bring them back out in a couple months! When children don't like or play with toys it's usually because they are not age-appropriate...so try again later!
My daughter LOVES this puzzle. She began playing with it and an animal Melissa & Doug puzzle when she was 6 months old. She still loves playing with them now that she is 13 months old. I am a preschool and kindergarten teacher and know the importance of puzzles in a childs development. These puzzles are great learning "toys." They work not only on fine motor skills but hand eye coordination and verbal skills. My daughter is just now figuring out how the pieces go in. Also, she loves to say "CAR" or "Vroom" every time she picks up one of the trucks. With the animal puzzle she picks them up and says the names of the animals and the sounds. Definitely worth the $$!
We have several Melissa and Doug chunky puzzles that my son loves, so we ordered this one to add to the collection. Sadly, this particular puzzle (and the dinosaur one) are not the same quality as other puzzles in the series. The older chunky puzzles have an image painted on each piece. Even the back and sides of each piece are painted in primary colors. The newer chunky puzzles are pressed wood cut outs with raw (and somewhat rough) edges and backsides with decals stuck on the front. My son is still teething and sticks everything in his mouth. Within five minutes of opening this puzzle the decals are already coming off. For a product that is supposedly hand made, it is shoddy. Be warned, this is not like the older version of this puzzle!
For the little boys who love cars and trucks, this is a great toy.
My son absolutely loves this puzzle. He plays with it every day. It still has not lost it's novelty even after a month.
It is very durable and he likes the big pieces because they are easier to handle.
I GOT THIS FOR MY 20 MONTH OLD GRANDSON...HE LOVES IT!
THE FAT PIECES ARE GREAT FOR LITTLE HANDS AND THE COLORS ARE GREAT ALSO...
