Melissa & Doug Colorful Fish Wooden Chunky Puzzle (8 pcs)

ALL of the basic colors in this great puzzle! Cute & straight to the point!

Product is good but for my 1 1/2 year old is a little bit difficult to place the fishes in the correct form. But he usually matches the colors and I end up putting the fish, so works ok.

My 18month old loves this puzzle! She is learning colors and this is perfect for her to match everything up. The fish are a thick, sturdy wood. The board is a think particle board/cardboard and i dont think it will last long. But I love the fish and that she gets so much joy out of matching and trying to decide what colors I am looking for. This would be a perfect gift if someone needs a great idea for a young family/friend gift!

The fish are a good size and weight for little hands to manipulate, and the depth of the board spaces is perfect for sliding them in without overcorrecting. A lot of others puzzles are more shallow so the pieces don’t thunk into place very satisfyingly and my toddler will keep wiggling the pieces around. The fish are also good for stacking, and are thick enough to balance on their edges. The only problem is the paint will rub away when being cleaned, and the corners are starting to show wear after a few months of heavy toddler use, but they are one of the favorite toys. Colors remain bright, and I’m going to try using beeswax to seal them between cleanings.

I have purchased other puzzles in the past that my child simply did not care for. My toddler (18 months old) absolutely loves this puzzle. She brings me the pieces so that I can put the piece where they belong. I sit down with her and recite the colors. I think this is a great learning tool for toddlers.

good for 2-3 yr olds learning colors and shapes

My little one loved this puzzle. Pieces were colorful and big enough for him to handle with ease. Puzzles deep wells allowed for easy placement of the pieces.

As always, Melissa and Doug products are fantastic ! Great quality...

I bought this for my 20month old daughter ! She absolutely loves playing with the fishes and she doesnt even know shes learning her colors and working on expanding her sentences. I am a speech therapist and this is great for building vocabulary as well as their association skills. I strongly recommend getting this puzzle.

Very good product. I got it for my niece for her 2nd birthday. Even with all the other flashy gifts she was getting, she opened this one and demanded the plastic safety wrapping be taken off so she could play with it right then and there. She’s still learning how to rotate the pieces until they fit in their spots but she’s got the color matching down!
