Melissa & Doug Construction Wooden Chunky Puzzle

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Puzzles
from: Melissa and Doug

June 12, 2006
We have several Melissa and Doug chunky puzzles that my son loves, so we ordered this one to add to the collection. Sadly, this particular puzzle (and the dinosaur one) are not the same quality as other puzzles in the series. The older chunky puzzles have an image painted on each piece. Even the back and sides of each piece are painted in primary colors. The newer chunky puzzles are pressed wood cut outs with raw (and somewhat rough) edges and backsides with decals stuck on the front. My son is still teething and sticks everything in his mouth. Within five minutes of opening this puzzle the decals are already coming off. For a product that is supposedly hand made, it is shoddy. Be warned, this is not like the older version of this puzzle! ... Read More:

This is an extremely durable puzzle with pieces that fit well, but not too tightly, into their places - providing an excellent challenge for my one-year-old.

It is well designed creative toy. My 8 and 11 year old boys play with it often. It has found room in my car and we love playing with it and creating new shapes and tools.

Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden USA Map

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Puzzles
from: Melissa and Doug


My seven year old loves maps. This puzzle has been great for him. It helped him to learn the position of all the states and he even knows the state capitals now. Well worth the $10 price. My three year old plays with it too. She can build it by herself and has learned the names of several states. I highly recommend this puzzle.

Melissa & Doug Learn-to-Play Piano

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Puzzles
from: Melissa & Doug


Okay, I entitled this review "Piano, piano, piano..." because the sound of it is exactly like that piano on Elmo's World where Elmo uses the "Jingle Bells" tune to sing about whatever his theme is for the day; you know, "dogs, dogs, dogs..." The tone isn't perfect, but it's pretty close, and my kids are still at the ages where I'm trying to teach them not to play a piano with their feet, so this little thing is ideal. All three of my kids like to sit down and howl out a song that doesn't at all match the "music" they're playing on this piano. But they are gaining an appreciation of music, and one of them has even learned to match her voice to the note she's playing, so that's a good start.

Melissa and Doug Tools Wooden Chunky Puzzle

My 2 year old niece has a father who is very handy around the house so getting a puzzle with tools was a great idea. The parents are high on "girl power" so there is a non-sexist attitude about appropriate puzzles for their daughter. Dad is very interactive with his daughter when they do this puzzle together.

Puzz 3D - U.S. Capitol Building

Childrens Toy Shop > Toys > Puzzles
from: Hasbro

August 01, 2005
I ordered the 3-D puzzle of the capitol building as a gift for my nephew for Christmas. I did not receive the puzzle that I ordered. The castle puzzle was shipped to me instead. I contacted the company to see if I could switch it out in time for the holidays. I got an e-mail that they would send me the correct puzzle, but I never received it. The quality of the puzzle and the educational value seem to be great, I was just disappointed that I didn't get the puzzle that I had ordered. I ended up just giving the castle to my nephew instead because I didn't have time to bird dog this problem before the holidays.
