Product Description

Editorial Review

A plywood puzzle with a difference: the idea is to get the pieces out after you put them in. The 11.75-inch by 8.50-inch aquatic scene (mainly in blues, oranges, and browns) includes such pieces as a sea horse, various fish, a crab, and a starfish. Though the pieces are wood, each has a metal "button" in the middle; attach a magnet to a line and practice "fishing" them out before reconstructing the puzzle. (For an especially interesting challenge, try "fishing" them back in.) --Richard Farr

5.0 out of 5 stars Talking to the Fishes, May 1, 2000

By A Customer

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars

I was a little concerned about purchasing a game with realistic pictures of fish for my four year old girl who loves dress-up dolls, the color pink, and anything with the word "princess" in it. She loves it! She talks to the fish just like she does her dolls, picks them up with the magnetic fishing rod, and then "puts them to bed" or "home" by returning the fish to their proper place in the puzzle. I've been pleased with the quality of every toy I've bought from this manufacturer, and now look for them when shopping online or at the store.

3.0 out of 5 stars Worried Mom, November 28, 2001

By A Customer

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars

My kids love this toy and I have to admit it helps with motor skills and matching sizes and shapes. The thing that is making my hair turn gray is that the rod has a string from which dangles the magnet. Not a problem if your household doesn't have a child who constantly whirls the string around like a helicopter, making the magnet fly. I spend so much time worrying about the kids' eyes that I tend to hide the toy so they'll forget about it. If you have a calm, gentle child who is good about listening, go for it. This is great. Otherwise, you might want to look for something safer.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Product! Lots of Fun., April 6, 2001

By	Santa Ran Out of Batteries, and Then... (Texas) - See all my reviews

Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars

My almost-3-year-old son loves puzzles and loves fish, so this one was a no-brainer. I am impressed with the game's quality. And with a little imagination, it offers lots of educational fun: counting, colors, size comparisons, etc. I found a taller cardboard box and put the pieces magnet-up inside, then sent my son fishing for them. He thought the suprise of which on he'd get was great fun. After catching each, he would decide whether to "throw 'em back" (put back in the puzzle board or in the box) or "cook 'em"!
