My girls were so excited to open this at Christmas time. They were excited to recognize earth. As they put the puzzle together they were kneeling on the pieces trying to get the pieces where they need to go. The puzzle seems to be very strong where kneeling on them won’t hurt them. The colors on the puzzle are sharp. I was very impressed. I think this puzzle is a good way to get your kids to know what planets there are and what they look like.

Melissa & Doug Solar System 48pc Floor

First I bought this product for my nephew who is 9 and has an interest in space. He loved it and kept taking it apart and putting it back together,

now he is going to glue and hang it on his bedroom wall. So I ordered two more for my grandson who is five and my sister’s grandson who is 4.

They both love them. The four year old had a great rainy day putting it together and since he’s wild about the planets lately he was really pleased. His parents recognized the Melissa and Doug product name and knew the quality of their puzzles. I wish they would come out with one that is large with the stars and the constellations, all three are beginning to have an interest in the night sky. Great durable pieces. Grandma M

5 Stars Very satisfied
This is the fourth M&D jigsaw puzzle we have purchased for my son (he just turned 3). They are a challenge, but a managable one. He gets a great sense of accomplishment when he finishes, and we get to identify the objects in the picture-another learning opportunity. The pieces are big enough for him to handle easily and they typically divide in such a way that it isn’t too hard for him to find a match. Great opportunity for semi-guided learning through play. Very satisfied with the construction and quality of the puzzles as well.

5 Stars Wonderful puzzle
Our 3-year old granson loves puzzles. As usual, this Melissa and Doug puzzle if durable and educational.

Excellent puzzle.

4 Stars Great Choice
My 3 year old daughter loved this puzzle and continues to play with it. It is nice because it fits together easily (no funny shapes) and she likes the pictures.

5 Stars Challenging
This is a challenging puzzle meant for older pre-schoolers or early elementary age. The pictures are interesting and appealing and fairly simple with sharp colors and durable blocks. This puzzle is difficult because children must select the appropriate side of each cube in order to complete the puzzle picture. The task is made simpler by the unique border color around each picture. This puzzle is made to last and will be enjoyed for years. Just don’t expect a very young child to master it.

1 Star Not what I expect from Melissa and Doug
Most Melissa and Doug products are great. Painted surfaces and durable. I bought this one expecting the same, but was very disappointed. The blocks have pictures on paper poorly glued on. I have had to cover every block in book tape to keep it from peeling.

5 Stars Pets Cube Puzzle
We gave this puzzle as a gift and we have heard that it is a big hit!

5 Stars This was such fun! I’d recommend for over 4 year olds and up, since it’s a little advanced for under that age.
Great toy. It’s like having several puzzles in one. Best for over 4 yrs old and up since it’s tough to remember earlier than that. A+

5 Stars A must have for toddlers!
My 2yr old son received this puzzle as a gift and he loves to play with it almost daily. He needs help putting it together, but I love watching him discover ways to figure out where each piece goes. The wheels and hose pieces he has down pat already at 26mths. The puzzle is huge, which is another reason he loves it. We spend about 20 mins with this puzzle, talking about colors, parts of the truck, etc. He even loves the little dog. Great for any toddler into fire trucks. Pieces are well built, connect well, and hold up to toddler handling.

5 Stars Fun for little guys
Gave this and another Melissa and Doug puzzle to my friend’s little boy for an early gift form Santa this year. It was a huge hit!

5 Stars This is huge!
My 3 year old son loves all the Melissa & Doug floor puzzles. This one is huge and is of very high quality.

5 Stars Firetruck puzzle is great!
My 3 year old son loves this puzzle and we’ve put it together many times. The pieces are durable and the puzzle is challenging enough to be interesting but not so much that he can’t do it alone. He loves firetrucks and this has been a truly enduring purchase. Would buy again.

5 Stars Fun educational toy
We have a 3 yr old that loves making this puzzle. Pieces are large enough for him to handle with ease. Good family activity

5 Stars Love Melissa & Doug
We love Melissa and Doug puzzles. They are sturdy and last longer than other puzzles. I wish there was a picture for my son to go off of but he seems to be doing OK without it. Love the cute pirate theme!

5 Stars Great Puzzles
I love the wooden puzzles for my Grandson. He gets them together right away and does them over and over. Wonderful.

5 Stars Excellent puzzle
When i opened the box and saw this puzzle, i was so impressed with the quality and durability. The colors are vivid. the pieces are not tiny and thin, they are a good size and very thick, can take abuse. My step-grandson loved it. The best part, he can’t destroy it, he is very hard on his toys, but this will hold up. I would buy Melissa and Doug products again and i would recommend this product to anyone. Excellent puzzle and great price.

5 Stars beautifully engaging puzzle
I recently started purchasing puzzles for my 3 year old and found it difficult to find out that was both visually captivating and durable. My 3 year old daughter was drawn to puzzles that had the everyday cartoon characters and found great entertainment in putting them together. As soon as she saw this puzzle she was drawn in by the beautiful picture it displayed. The colors were vibrant and appealing to the eye. The only issue I had with it was that due to the fact that is was brand new it was difficult to take the puzzle pieces apart as they are wooden. Once you have unassembled it and used it frequently the pieces get easier to put together. The fact that it has a wooden frame to help hold the puzzle in place was a big plus for my daughter. I purchased quite a few of the Doug and Melissa puzzles and she was captured by the unconventional illustrations which she was not used to.

4 Stars Worth the money
This puzzle is well made and the graphics are just brilliant. My 3 year old grandson enjoyed the picture but did need assisstance to assemble.

Mastermind

Test your code-cracking prowess with Mastermind, “the challenging game of logic and deduction.” The codemaker sets a code of four colored pegs–choosing from yellow, red, orange, blue, green, or white–and conceals it behind a flip-up shield. Your mission: replicate the code in 10 moves or fewer. With each of the codebreaker’s attempts, the codemaker uses red and white key pegs to offer cryptic clues about color and position. Make the game even more difficult by using multiple pegs of the same color or by leaving one or more peg holes empty. With more than 2,000 possible code combinations, every game is guaranteed to be a brain-bender. All of Mastermind’s components can be stored in the game board. Mastermind is for two players.

4 Stars Too bad for those with big hands and fingers…
I love the logic of this game and couldn’t wait to share it with my husband. Unfortunately it is not as fun for him because he has very large hands and fingers which make it impossible for him to position the pegs in the holes. This is a huge dissapointment for both of us.

5 Stars Mastermine
This is an excellent toy. My daughter who is 42 remembers playing it when she was young and asked me to get it for her children.

They love it.

3 Stars Fun game, but bad colors
I had this game when I was a kid and liked it. I still do. I like the kind of thinking it takes, and I like to see how my opponent is thinking.

So I got one to play with my kids, and noticed some things about the Pressman version that make the game less enjoyable than the Invicta version I had back in the day:

- The colors in the new version are terrible. The plastic shield that hides the code from the code breaker puts the code into a dim light that makes it hard for me to distinguish the colors and compare them to the codebreaker’s colors that are in better light (I am not colorblind, and my son had the same problem). The old colors were bold, mostly primary, and visually distinctive: red, yellow, blue, green, white, and black. The new colors are namby pamby and easy to confuse: pink/magenta, turquoise/teal, fluorescent orange, purple, yellow, and white. I have to keep reminding myself that what I see in the code as “green” or “blue” is the same as the codebreaker’s “turquoise”, my “red” is his “pink”, my “purple” is the same as his “purple”, “yellow” is not “white”, etc. This is a logic game, not a color-recognition game.

- The shield keeps coming off and is a nuisance to reattach. The old shield just set down on top and was held in place by gravity. Simple.

A few other things:

- The box is really large. The old game came in a right-sized box. I think the idea is to just recycle the box since the board has storage space for the pegs, but I didn’t like playing from the storage space for some reason.

- There are some numbered holes down the side of the board that seem intended to be used for keeping score, but they’re not mentioned in the instructions and none of the pegs fit in them anyway.

My advice: get this game, it’s a good one, but try to find a used Invicta version somewhere.

4 Stars A GREAT THINKING GAME!
I remember playing this game back in the 70’s when I was a kid and I absolutely loved it!! Then my 11 yr. old son asked for it for Christmas and I was so happy to see they are still making it. We have played it almost every night since then and it’s nice to see him interested in a game other than a video on TV! It’s only for 2 players, but you will really enjoy this!

5 Stars mastermind review
excellent product from ages 5 or 6 through adult. easy to learn and makes you use your brain. i never bought the kids’ version – just went upon recommendation of another review and i only use 3 pegs to play with my 6 year old and it works perfectly for her.
