Unlike many children's puzzles, this one gives them an interesting subject that hasn't been dumbed down, and putting the puzzle together presents a few difficulties to make sure kids have to think about it a little.

This unique theme introduces young ones to acient Egyptian items. Its golden hue throughout make it more difficult than the typical Melissa and Doug of similar size. As usual, all M&D puzzles are of high quality thick cardboard that will last and are easy to manipulate. My son and 2 neighbors worked on it for an hour together (ages from 5-8) and found it challenging and rewarding. It is one of my own favorite puzzles as well.

It's a great durable puzzle but what I really love is the image on the puzzle. Dinosaur, sea life and farm animal puzzles seem to dominate the children's puzzle market. This one is a great image that keeps my kids' attention.

All of these Melissa & Doug floor puzzles are great. I purchased this for our 6 yr. old nephew. He had it completed in about 30 minutes. The pieces are large and the completed puzzle is about 2' X 3' which is neat. The colors are vibrant and there is good detail. I will purchase more of these for other kids between ages 5 and 7.
