This delightful double-sided offering gives kids two highly enjoyable animal-themed puzzles in one to solve, each with its own distinct set of visual cues: black and white vs. brightly colored, matte finish vs. glossy, light purple background vs. blue-green. Youngsters jumped right in and began sorting, flipping the pieces over and back to inspect colors, shapes and patterns as a means of determining which side should face up. This simple, logical out-of-the-gate prep had the effect of immediately engaging participants, body and mind, while also bringing a good deal of added visual discrimination and motor skills development to the table. As the puzzle progressed, children became increasingly adept at assessing differences and similarities and finding each piece's proper place within the whole. We gave kids the opportunity to solve both sides of the puzzle solo as well as in groups of two, four and six participants, and everyone involved had an enormously good time! Animal Kingdom 100 Piece Double-Sided Puzzle measures 22 x 16.5 inches completed.
