Melissa & Doug Underwater Ocean Floor Puzzle 48-Piece Set | 48 Wipe-Clean Pieces, 3x2 Feet, Ocean Animal Scene and Illustrated Guide, Floor Puzzle Play, Preschool Toys for Kids, Ages 3+

My 4 year old loves doing these puzzles! They are heavy duty enough that they hold up to toddler play, and you are less likely to lose pieces because of their size. The image is vivid, and the box it comes in is also very strong. The price of these puzzles can be a bit high, but I buy them when there’s a deal. Will continue to buy.

Puzzles are so much fun and keeps minds busy. Well made. Nice size. Keeps them busy for hours. Alone or with friends.

Our kids love this floor puzzle. Durable, easy but challenging enough for ages 3-6 and great quality.

I bought this puzzle and the farmhouse puzzle for my 2.5 year old. I later added the floor puzzles for the dinosaurs and firetruck. I happen to think my daughter is pretty bright so I bought her this puzzle even though the age range starts at 3 years old. I would say that, of the bunch, my daughter clearly prefers the farm puzzle, however, I won't rate this puzzle negatively for that. The farm puzzle is fewer pieces (36 pieces) and the objects in the puzzle are separated out a bit more so it's easier for a child to identify it's proper placement, also the objects in the puzzles are more distinct from one another in that fishes can look like fishes whereas a cow does not look like a pig. Anyhow, this puzzle is very beautiful and bright. It does have some parts which are easier for the younger audience to discern such as the killer whales, sharks, and dolphins. Once you start getting into the reef and smaller fishes, it becomes more challenging. As I mentioned, I don't think this is necssarily a bad thing for this puzzle as the stated age range is 3 and up, so I won't rate it down for the fact that a 2 year old has a tougher time with it, but I just wanted to let parents know that if you are looking for a puzzle for a younger child, I would say that the farmhouse is great starter puzzle and then the kids can work their way up to this puzzle which is a bit more challenging. It's very durable and I can compare it to another brand (with the thomas puzzle) and the pieces on this puzzle are much thicker and durable and lock in place better. I think even though my daughter has to grow into this puzzle a bit more, I think it will provide a good bit of challenge, stimulation for some time to come.

Good quality, bright puzzle

My son just turned 3 and is in love with puzzles. This one is currently his favorite. It's fun to put together but still a little challenging for a kiddo his size. The colors are very vibrant, and there are so many species of fish in the puzzle that we can turn it into a learning and search and find game too once the puzzle is together. That being said, I have two concerns. First, right out of the box some of the pieces were flaking at the edges. I'm concerned that after putting it together repeatedly that the design will start to peel off entirely. Nearly half the pieces have some sort of peeling going on. Second, it smells AWFUL. We love to get down on the floor and put it together, and there are some serious fumes coming off the pieces. I've left it out to air overnight and the pieces still have a very chemical odor to them. I'm not sure if it's from the glue or the painting process or what, but I'm surprised at the odor.

Excellent puzzle with great colors.

Great quality floor puzzle!

Buen puzzle de suelo, tamaño considerable y piezas muy fáciles de montar para un niño

I love the Melissa & Doug Underwater Ocean Floor Puzzle! The pieces are bigger, thicker, and easy to handle, making it perfect for my daughter. The design is colorful and engaging, providing a great educational, screen-free activity. Just one suggestion: if the puzzle glowed in the dark, it would take it to the next level—but this isn’t a limitation at all. My child loves it, and I definitely give it 5 stars!

Es el segundo de esta marca y tipo que adquirimos. Está genial, mi hijo no se aburre de armarlo una un otra vez. Mi niño tiene 3 años y lo domina sin apoyo por tanta práctica. Las piezas son excelentes en su tamaño y manipulación. El armado completo es de buen tamaño. No es pequeño, requieres trabajarlo en el piso con algún tapete o en un comedor. Compraremos más de este tipo, vale la pena. Saludos.

Super Amazing

As per the standard M&D product.. this is awesome. Delivery was prompt.
