I think the best part for a parent with wooden puzzles is knowing how durable they are. Wood is tough and can stand up to the “little people” treatment that a lot of toys just can’t deal with. Knowing that it is something that is going to last is worth the investment for me as a parent.
All puzzles have benefits for children’s learning, but wooden puzzles hold something special. These easy to grab and manipulate toys provide some extra help for little fingers just mastering grip silks. These simple puzzles allow little people to build the puzzle without frustration and are a fantastic self-correcting learning tool. In-Other-Words: it’s so obvious when the puzzle is wrong, they will keep going until they get it right.
Wooden puzzles also offer a different experience. Normally children who are age appropriate for wooden puzzles may have been working with geometric shaped puzzles, now they can experience a range of unique shapes. Wood also provides a good tactile experience for children.
We often recommend wooden puzzles for gifts as it’s a lasting quality toy that you know will be enjoyed. They also provide a number of great learning opportunities such as: build problem solving skills, develop hand eye coordination, improve memory, develop visual reasoning, and attention to detail. Nice Gift!
