Q: I can't identify some of the animals. Is there a legend somewhere?
submitted by Miro - 1 year ago
A: The name of each animal is written on the board in the space where the corresponding block goes so parents will be able to know what animal each letter is supposed to be. Thank you

Its a cute puzzle and my kids loved it. But today I found a piece of wood in my sons mouth. Pieces of wood randomly chip off for no reason. Sadly now it goes away for good

This toy is the perfect shape for tiny hands to grasp and place. My two year old nephews played with this for HOURS and it’s currently his favorite toy
Great practice

I love the durability of the paint, the wood base fells like it will last. The only change I'd make is some of the animals do not match the first sound of the letter. For example for C the animal is a cheetah which first sound is CH, not a hard or soft C like Cat or Centipede. It's the teacher in me that knows that is important!
A favorite for years!

My youngest gravitated to this puzzle, particularly the Z, when she was learning to crawl around. She's almost 3 and still loves it! And the zebra is still her favorite. Some of the letters are a little odd, but they're still cute and durable. We have other puzzles and things for accuracy...
You should buy it

Your child will actually enjoy playing with this. I like how each letter underneath has a name of the animal.

cute but there isn’t really anything substantial to hold letters in place I could see these getting lost easily I don’t know what I was expecting I guess like a click in place situation?
Cute but not accurate shaped letters

Yoga Girl - 11 months ago, Verified purchaser
Cute puzzle but the letter shapes are not accurate so they are not suitable to teach letters to a young child. And as another reviewer pointed out, it would be nice if the puzzle pieces fitted deeper in the puzzle board.
Doesn't stay in place

It’s super cute and I don’t mind that the letter aren’t always exactly the shape they should be. My problem is the grooves for the pieces aren’t deep enough. My daughter will be doing the puzzle and when she puts in a new piece, she knocks over some of the ones she’s already put in. She has another chunky puzzle similar to this and we don’t have that problem. A little disappointed.

Kind of confusing - the letters are somewhat shaped like the animals, and also the animals used were occasionally hard to recognize. While not ideal for initially learning letters, it is definitely a cute puzzle. I purchased this for my 3.5 year old, and he does love it!

Not a huge fan of the letters being shaped like animals because it makes some letters confusing to look at. Not ideal for learning the alphabet

Letter shapes don't look like the actual letters. Definitely not helpful when trying to teach little ones their alphabet.

Short Vowels

Caralyne - 1 year ago
I absolutely love this concept! The primary teacher/reading interventionist in me always looks for short vowel examples. I realize this would be difficult for “U”; the only animal I could find was an “umbrellabird.” 😅 To me, the dipthong “ow” sound in “owl” as an example for the letter O is confusing. It’d be more beneficial to use something like, “octopus” or “otter,” for example.
Could be better

Let me start by saying this puzzle is very cute. However, I am disappointed in the quality. The letters seem to be a better quality, but the board itself started chipping almost immediately after opening in multiple different places. I’m not sure I would recommend just because it could be a hazard to your little one if the letters or board start to chip.

Bought this for my 2 year old he loves it colors are bright and puzzle is smooth considering it’s wood. Came in okay condition the top roll of letters had a bit of a streak going through and the letter “U” had extra wood. And as my son played with one of the blue letter it marked the wood a little. They put 2 types of Whales for “Narwhal and Whale” so maybe could of got more creative. Over all I would purchase this for another in store so I can make sure it’s in good condition.

Love it. They’re cute and a good chunky size for toddler hands. Having the back as a landscape setting for the pieces to play on was clever too.
Great puzzle toy!
