Melissa & Doug Jumbo Numbers Wooden Chunky Puzzle (20 pcs)

My son loves it. He is 2.5 and loves numbers and letters. A great educational tool.

I purchased this for my 17-month old daughter after seeing it at a friends house. This puzzle, in combination with a set of foam bath letters helped her recognize all of the letters in a very short time. She loves the puzzle pieces and carries her favorite letters around the house with her. I wish I would have gotten the version with both capital and lower case letters though. Ill probably be purchasing that soon.

The original construction of this puzzle included paint all around the puzzle piece. Now, its just a cheap paper laminate on the top; the remainder of the puzzle piece is compressed cardboard. I called Melissa and Doug directly and asked whether they were still making the high quality version of the board, and she said they had discontinued it. They did offer to refund our money or send us an alternative toy, so that was nice. Ultimately, I kept the alphabet puzzle because its one of the better ones out there. However, I hate how Melissa and Dough cut corners on the new version. Disappointing, and now the pieces are chipping/peeling on the top, which means it looks even worse. Recommendation: Keep an eye out for the better quality version at thrift stores or garage sales. It will hold up better and youll pay less money.

Im a professional nanny specializing in toddler care. I always request that my parents purchase this puzzle for me to use as a teaching tool. Its amazing how quickly a two year old can learn the ABCs!

I have always loved the chunky puzzles by M&D and this one is great. My daughter learned to count with this puzzle and it was great to mix them up and ask her to say each number before she put it in the puzzle. She is 4 years old now and a little old for this but my friends younger children love coming over and playing with it. I love how the pieces are large and easy for toddlers to grab.

My granddaughter loves this, she already knows all her alphabet, this is great

The Melissa & Doug Jumbo Numbers Wooden Chucky Puzzle was puchased as a gift for educational purpose. I had picked up several of Melissa & Dougs puzzles at a local department store. I was so impressed with the quality I decided to look on Amazon for additional products made by Melissa & Doug. I was not disappointed to discover the numbers puzzle and purchased to add to our grandchildrens newly started Melissa & Doug puzzle collection. Thank you Amazon for another reliable & well made product.

We love Melissa and Doug puzzles in our house! They are so bright and vibrant! This one in particular is great for any child new to learning the alphabet or what words begin with as each letter corresponds with an animals or some other item. Its very large too so its easy for play time with more than one child as well which I love!

Very durable and great for all ages.

...because it is bright and colorful, very tolerable to chewing and sucking, and well, for whatever reasons that are unbeknownst to me he loves it for them too. Melissa & Doug toys are some of the best toys for young children out there. It is also a great toy because it is introducing numbers at the earliest ages possible. That as well as problem solving. Its all about numbers and mathematics. Do yourself a favor and help your child as many ways as possible to learn math and sciences. Thanks M&D for this great toy.
