BeginAgain Animal Parade A to Z Puzzle and Playset - Educational Wooden Alphabet Puzzle - 2 and Up

In the CITY A TO Z puzzle what do so many of the letters stand for......its hard for the adults to decifer. Please include the meaning of the letters in the game next time.

This is a beautiful well-make wooden puzzle. Each piece is beautiful. Such fun for kids to get to know the animal names and how to piece together a puzzle. I highly recommend.

I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my nephew of 1 1/2 years. Knowing he was too young, I wanted something more challenging-as he completes puzzles with such ease. He loves it-and its a challenge. The cool part? You can play and stack them as wooden animals! Win, win.

This puzzle is very cute and very well made. I bought it for my 3yo granddaughter, who loves puzzles. When I gave it to her, she didnt like it as much as the traditional square type, but I jumped the gun a little. She just started pre-school! But she can still play with the animals, name them, and say what they say. And I think she will grow into it and like the challenge of the different format when she does.

Personally, I hate this puzzle. Like most large puzzles, my 3yo loves dumping it out but not putting it back together. After putting this back together myself once or twice I almost threw it away. It is hard even for an adult. It is painted on both sides of each piece, one side with capital letters and the other side with lower case. Thats great except the pieces arent symmetrical, so if you want to put it together on the lower-case side its a mirror image so it would go from right to left instead of left to right, the z picture would come first and the a picture would come last. My child hardly knows the difference between capital and lower case yet. Another reason its frustrating is that there is a bunch of empty space at the top, and the pieces dont fit together, they just stack on top of each other and squeeze together inside a frame. It was nearly impossible to remember how all the little pieces fit together after the dog for D. I quickly decided that I was not going to keep this puzzle if I didnt do something to help. I highly recommend this - get a pencil and outline each piece one at a time inside the wooden frame. This ruins the ability to do the puzzle upside-down on the lower-case side but we wouldnt use it that way anyway. My kids like using this puzzle more as wooden figures for play. They stand them up alongside their wooden train track. For that purpose this is a beautifully painted wooden toy set.

Granddaughter loves this puzzle! Putting it together was the initial highlight, but now we just play with the animals and have adventures with Unicorn, Zebra, Crow (Vulture), and Quail. Its sturdy, and has just the right level of difficulty for 3-4 year olds. Once the puzzle is mastered. the pieces can have a second life. Brilliant 4/18/21 Our girl is nearly 9 now and still uses the pieces when playing make-believe. She has progressed to timing herself when putting it together. It has lasted very nicely. Super for that multi-child household!

This puzzle is made of wood and very sturdy. The cool thing is that on one side of each piece are uppercase letters and the other side are all lower case, so you can arrange the puzzle going right to left or left to right. Hence, “BeginAgain”.

I found this at a Barnes and Nobles years ago and have bought several as gifts for relatives and my daughters and sons friends. Sturdy, colorful, cute. The kids enjoy playing with it and learning their letters. Its beautiful and cheerful enough to kept for a long time, displayed on a shelf, and taken down to play with when a little kid visits.
