I bought this puzzle for my two daughters. It was more fun than I could have imagined! We put the puzzle together and then afterwards, had a blast searching for the tiny hidden images with the little magnifying glass included. It was so fun, they took it apart and did it over again. What a great idea for a puzzle. Usually, we put it together and that's it. This is like 2 activities for the price of one!

I bought one of these puzzles (World Animals) for my after school program for elementary kids thinking they would love the extra challenge of finding the hidden animals. The overall quality is typical of lower cost puzzles, so I have no complaints about that. And it is a perfectly fine 100 piece puzzle of the world. However, the print quality was so poor that even with the enclosed magnifying glass, it was impossible to make out any "hidden animals". Without the glass, they were virtually invisible - not just hard to see - impossible. With the glass they looked like smears in the ink. At least I think that was one of the animals. My 15 year old son and I put the puzzle together and searched for an hour and couldn't find anything that looked like an animal - just smears of paint in vaguely animal-like shapes scattered here and there. I think the company needs to boost the print resolution considerably. In theory, it was a great idea, and I was sorry to be disappointed.
