Melissa & Doug Farm Wooden Chunky Puzzle (8 pcs) - FSC Certified

This puzzle is excellent quality and beautifully made. The colors are bright, the pieces are sturdy, and everything feels very safe for little hands. My 2-year-old grandkids absolutely love playing with it-they enjoy matching the animals and taking the pieces in and out. It keeps them busy and happy, and it's a great learning toy as well.

Setup/First Impressions: No setup needed—just open the box and it’s ready to play. The puzzle pieces are a great size for little hands and the colors are bright and cheerful. Quality/Performance: The wood feels solid and durable, not flimsy at all. The chunky pieces are easy for my toddler to grab and put back, and they don’t chip or peel like some cheaper puzzles. Experience: My toddler loves naming the animals and using the pieces as little toys outside the puzzle board. It’s both fun and educational, helping with hand-eye coordination and learning animal names. Would I Buy Again? Absolutely. It’s sturdy, engaging, and has already become a favorite toy. I’d buy this again as a gift for other kids too.

I love Melissa and Doug products! I purchased a total of ten different themed "Chunky Wooden Puzzles," for my niece and nephew...they are the perfect gift! The age is two and up, and although the recipients are only one and six months, I figured that they could "grow into them." I always try to get fun yet educational gifts for family members and always go to Melissa and Doug. Quality, color and overall attractiveness are wonderful! Thank you!

This was a fantastic purchase at a great price point! The puzzle is colorful and well made with just enough wiggle room for each smoothly rounded piece that they can be easily manipulate by little hands. I actually purchased this as an aid for fine motor skill development for an 8 month old. He loves manipulating and playing with the pieces and will grow into the puzzling aspects soon enough. This is a definite “yes”!

Excellent quality, the pieces fit nicely into the frame, the colors are bright, it's engaging for a wee one, even a child 9 months old if they are ready will enjoy this. An older child will also likely play with the pieces (like use the animals to talk to each other, making pretend stories). I wasn't sure if I would like that the pieces didn't come with those little silver colored hand-holds, but yes, I do, there is no need (at least not for this set) for hand holds, and then there is no choking hazard either for babies still putting everything in their mouths.

This is a great puzzle for a 1-2 year old. Helps them learn animals and a great starter puzzle

The Melissa and Doug Chunky puzzles are amazing for my toddler. The pieces are big enough for her to grasp and the wood holds up well to her banging the pieces on the floor. The theming is also educational.
