Animals of the World [With 6 48-Piece Jigsaws]

This puzzle book is a very fun activity for you and your child to do together. My daughter received it as a gift when she was 4. It was a little difficult for her at first, but with a little help, we put it together and had a great time. She is now 6, and still loves it. It's really great because it takes some time to figure out the puzzles. It's not too easy, but not too difficult. Satisfied Mom

I bought this for my 6 yr old as a present. She LOVES it and spends considerable time doing the puzzles. The more interested she is in the puzzles, the more interested she is in learning about the animals. The book feaures 6 - 48 piece puzzles depicting animals from 6 continents. Antartica is included, but not in puzzle form. The book is colorful, and sturdy. The pieces do not fall out once assembled. The illustrations are beautiful and wonderfully life-like. I found it to also be a great activity book to travel with ... not for use in the car, but useful once you get there soft of thing. It can occupy kids for a long time. I would recommend it for ages 4-5 WITH help and ages 6-8 on thier own. It is a fun learning / doing "sort of thing".

I started out playing the puzzle with my daughter by showing her pieces of puzzle and location to place them, gradually she was trained to do so herself, and now she can complete the entire puzzle on her own with minimal help. On top of the educational value it's great for pattern recognition and observation at early childhood age. I wish the author has produced more puzzles of similar nature. Highly recommended for age 4 and up.

This was a Christmas gift that I bought at a book fair for my grandson who is almost six. He loved this book! He spent hours putting the puzzles together and asking the names of each animal that was shown in the puzzle. The puzzle is beautifully illustrated and the animals are identified by numbers. Two other titles were listed at the end of this book, Artic and Antarctic, he has asked for both of these books for his birthday. This book is a good choice for any child in this age group.

I bought this book of puzzles for my 5 and 3 year-olds. It is a bit above my 3 year-old, but perfect for the 5 year-old. I cannot resist helping out. The colors are beautiful, the pictures are fantastic. The six puzzles include animals from: Africa, Asia, Australia, North America, South America, and Europe. There is a key that gives the names of every animal on each page. There are also a few paragraphs about the flora and fauna of each area. This is definitely worth the money, particularly if you like animals and puzzles.
