Melissa & Doug Fishing Magnetic Puzzle Game – Wooden Puzzle with Magnetic Fishing Pole and 10 Colorful Sea Creatures – Hand-Eye Coordination Toy for Kids Ages 3+ | MD3778

Great fun and great price. This is the second time I’ve bought this for little ones.

I bought this puzzle for my 18 month old son 3 months ago as a development toy to work on his eye hand coordination and memory. Out of the package this puzzle arrived as expected: the puzzle pieces were in good shape, great quality and were easy to remove and re-insert. The magnet that was attached to the wooden stick worked great with the puzzle pieces: strong enough to the lift the pieces out of the puzzle yet easy enough for my son to remove the pieces from the magnet by hand once he has lifted them from the board. What I love about this product: I really enjoyed that the pictures of the puzzle pieces were not on the board once the pieces are removed. It was great to watch my son develop over a three month span as he went from just removing the pieces (eye hand coordination) to being able to put the puzzle pieces back without needing a picture as a guide (memory). I also enjoyed that the sea creatures are different colors so we could call out colors and watch him figure out which piece to remove. What I didn't like about this product: nothing to report here. Overall I would highly recommend this quality product to anyone looking for a fun puzzle that will help their child with early development skills. In fact after having this puzzle for three months I went out and bought a different Melissa and Doug magnetic puzzle (the bug one) for him to play with.

Excelente juego. A mi niño de año y medio le encanta. Ya tiene 2 meses usandolo y ahora le encanta armarlo. Te encantará para tu chiquitin.

it helps to improve baby's hand skill. he can play 10mins everyday.

A good chunky, magnetic puzzle set from Melissa and Doug. It gives my 2 year old a sense of pride when he manages to solve the puzzle. Also he loves the fishing line and keeps singing the famous poem 'one two three four five once I caught a fish alive'. Easy to maintain, sturdy, durable, colorful toy that helps in developing cognitive skills. If your baby likes magnets, I would definately recommend to go for this product.
