Challenging and fun! Posted 09 January 2007
This is a great puzzle. You can use it to teach many things like colors, right/left, etc. The knobs need to be a little bigger though and there are so many pieces, it's easy for them to get lost. But still very much worth purchasing.
Wish the hands were toddler sized... Posted 28 April 2006
This puzzle is great, and I'm glad I bought it for my 2 year old, Claire. However, like most toddlers, she prefers things that are HER size. I find that the hands in this puzzle are slim adult sized hands, like my own. Maybe the makers felt "Mommy" sized hands were the way to go, or simply that they wanted to fill the space in a standard sized wooden puzzle. I think it would have been nice to make the hands toddler sized, with chubby palms and fingers. That said, it's a great tool. We don't use it much for counting, though that is it's intent. This is more of a prop for the song fest of "Where is Thumbkin" and an even more exciting prop for the game of "Dr. Claire" wherein she repairs the "owie hand".
All in all, a fine addition to your wooden puzzle collection.
Not too old for my 19 month old. Posted 25 March 2006
I thought that this would be toy my daughter would grow into and not be excited about at first. This was the first toy she opened at Christmas at only 19 months and was not interested in any others for the rest of the week! She enjoyed collecting the fingers and and "counting" them. She also has grown in the last few months to putting the puzzle together herself although the fingers might not make it on the correct hand just yet. Very durable, love that it is a traditional wood toy that doesn't have flashing lights or needs batteries! She still loves it months later. The only downside to any toy like this, is we have to collect the pieces after she has put them in various places around the house.
Another great learning tool from Melissa and Doug Posted 28 February 2006
Our little girl absolutely loves puzzles, and this one presented a real challenge. The pieces are somewhat irregular, left from right, which allows for growth in her problem-solving abilities. I bought this when she was 22 months, and she has been able to master it quickly. Not only do the pegged pieces help define fine motor skills, but the numbers, colors, and left/right make this a multi-dimensional learning tool. She's 24 months now, and has most colors down as well as learning to count. The colors were really helpful, because being the neurotic parent, I was beginning to wonder if she had some colorblindness because she wasn't recognizing colors at first. But silly me, I forgot she was a toddler. So much for my fears of why she isn't solving quadratic equations.
Hand Puzzle Posted 07 December 2005
My kids love this puzzle. It's in my pediatrician's office, and they run to it every time. My son, now 4, has been interested in it since he was 2, and my 2 year old is now fascinated by it as well.
