The manufacturer suggests an age range of 3 years and up, but I gave my son these puzzles when he was 22 months old and he figured them out pretty quickly. Two months later, he's still fascinated by them. He now has the vehicle puzzle set and the construction puzzle set and spends long periods of time every day assembling and then re-jumbling them.
There are many levels of play possible with these puzzles. At first, I put the puzzles together while he watched. Soon, he was putting one puzzle together, after I'd separated the pieces of only that one puzzle out for him. Then he started breaking up all four 12-piece puzzles, jumbling up all 48 total pieces and assembling them again. Then he became fascinated with putting the puzzle pieces away in their little compartments. He's so proud of mastering these skills that he shows them off to every visitor. And now that he's memorized the puzzles, he puts them together as fast as I can!
Even if you think jigsaw puzzles might be a little hard for your toddler, I encourage you to try these. The feeling confidence the little ones get from understanding and mastering them is a great boost for them -- and their parents!

This puzzle set, and the others offered, are great for my just-turned-two- year-old. He loves the pictures, and after a little guidance at the beginning, was mastering the puzzles rather rapidly. Now he enjoys noticing how to sort the different pieces to understand which one goes with which puzzle.
The puzzles are seem very durable too, wood pieces in a wood box. We will see how they hold up over the years for the next child, as we have only had them 2 weeks! I also love that the puzzle can be assembled on the lid.
Overall, I am very impressed with these puzzles and will definately buy more for friends and family (we already bought 4 different ones for our son, which shows how much we liked them).

We still have these puzzles for our second child. They hold up very well and travel well on trips with us! A favorite!

My 3 year-old son got this for Christmas. He asks to play with it every other day or so. It's not too difficult for him, but he does need help. I like that the pieces all store in the box, so they don't get lost. The markings on the back make it easy to sort out which pieces go to which puzzle. There are only 12 pieces per puzzle, so it doesn't take too long to put all 4 together. We also love that you can use the lid of the box to put the pieces together on, rather than having to use the floor or a table. For the price and the variety, it's a perfect puzzle for a preschooler.

Great idea to have 4 in 1 box. Perfect number of pieced per puzzle for a child learning to do non-peg puzzles.

good product
these are good for 4 year old kids! The fact that the pieces are wood cause a little difficulty for the kids when assembling, but overall they enjoy them.

Cheaply made and pieces get mixed up in the box
Good idea M&D, but this 4-in-1 puzzle set was poorly executed.

Great puzzle!
The kids that stop in my office have come to expect fun toys and entertainment. Melissa & Doug's wooden puzzles stand up to abuse and heavy use. The kids love them.
