This review is from: Dinosaur Jigsaw Puzzle 48pc (Toy)

My three and a half year old loves dinosaurs, so this has been a big hit. For now, it is a great interactive toy, because he is not quite ready to put together the puzzle by himself, but seems to love to do it with me. I do not think he will get bored of it for quite some time as he learns to do more of it by himself.

The puzzle does not include a color picture of the completed piece, which has not been a problem (I thought it might). However, it does come with a black and white outline of the picture glued on the bottom of the tray, which has numbers on each dinosaur and a corresponding number key telling you the proper name for each dinosaur (allosaurus, spinosaurus, etc.) pictured in the puzzle. I LOVE THAT!

The puzzle pieces are color paper mounted on wood, and it comes with a wooden tray. So far, I give it marks for durability.

This review is from: Dinosaur Jigsaw Puzzle 48pc (Toy)

My son is nuts for this puzzle, which he got when he was 3 1/2 and is still nuts about at age 4. It's got so many different dinosaurs that it's very visually engaging. He never bothers to look at the "completed picture" to do puzzles so it didn't bother him that there isn't a color picture of what the puzzle should look like, just a black and white drawing.
However, the very first time he played with this one of the pieces split slightly and the paper came off. A few days later another piece did the same thing. They need to use a higher quality plywood. However, he's been playing with it like crazy and none of the other pieces have split.

We love the Melissa & Doug puzzles. My 34 month old loves jigsaw puzzles and this brand doesn't disappoint. Nice graphics and big sturdy pieces that are great for little hands. I can't think of any cons when it comes to any of the Melissa & Doug puzzles we have bought thus far.
