This proved a very interesting puzzle to both my 7 month old son and my 3 year old son. It was a great medium for interaction between the two of them and was suprisingly enjoyed by both. My older son was able to name all the creatures and enjoys educating his younger brother, telling him what each one is and what they do, and who is friends with who! He also shows his younger brother how to do the puzzle. My youngest son loves the big bold bright shapes and can grasp them all easily and they are large enough not to be a hazard to him. He studies them for ages in his hands turning them round and moving them from hand to hand. He also puts (slams) them onto the board and has by fluke got them in the right place a few times (much to the delight of his older brother). I really think this toy would be better recommended for a younger age group - maybe 12 months plus. I have no negative comments or improvements to add to this toy.

This product is a little old for my 17 month old daughter as a puzzle. But it does say 2+ on the packaging.
She does like the animals just as toys to play with, she carries them around and says their names and noises.
I like the thickness of the animals so they can stand on their own and be a toy as well as a puzzle. It gives added value to the product.
I think the choice of animals is good, not too obscure, yet interesting.
The characters and colours of the animals are friendly and attractive.
I like the other subjects of the other puzzles in the range and think it is a good idea to have the images of the range on the packaging.
I would like the ability to put the puzzle back into a box, cardboard sleeve, something, to hold it all together when storing it. I would hate to loose the bits.
On the packaging it says it meets US standards but as the product is sold here it should say it meets NZ standards too if it does.
I think it is a little expensive, I would prefer a price of $15 as you can buy nice wooden puzzles for $9 some places. It would be too expensive for me to buy even as a gift.
