Re-marks' 850 Piece Map of Europe Puzzle incorporates a number of fine features that contribute to its exceptionally high entertainment and educational value. The visuals alone are exhilarating, the playful and richly detailed map illustration liberally sprinkled with eye-catching icons that are both fun and informative. Each country on the map is a mini-puzzle unto itself, allowing for unusually gratifying mini-sessions whenever a spare moment arises. 37 of the pieces are shaped like real-world objects, a feature that inspires spontaneous shape-searching activities aided by a special key included with the puzzle. The object or creature represented by each of those specially shaped pieces also acts as a clue as to where on the map it belongs (pizza . . . Italy!), spurring puzzlers to integrate multiple thought processes into their approach. The puzzle border is comprised of larger scale pieces that help get things off to a satisfyingly productive start setting a framework for everything else to fit within. Once assembled, the 24- x 36-inch puzzle is a well-spring of geography kids tend to pore over appreciatively, amazed at just how much new information they've gleaned along the way! Made in the USA.
