5 Stars Wonderful Puzzle
My son loved this and now my daughter does, too. Its neat how the pieces will stand up. Very durable. Great first puzzle.

5 Stars Delightful
This is a great puzzle, and it is very well made. My daughter started playing with it when she was about 18 months old. Even though she couldn’t always put the pieces in the correct spot, she still loved to play with them. Now that she is 2 yrs old, and able to complete the puzzle with ease, she likes it even more. I am trying to buy a puzzle rack to accommodate this and a few other Melissa and Doug chunky puzzles. I hope they will fit.

4 Stars Fun and Easy Toy for toddler
Like most Melissa and Doug products, this item is very quality and entertaining for young kids.

5 Stars First and Favorite
This was my daughter’s first Melissa and Doug chunky puzzle and still one of her favorites. It introduced her to these durable, colorful and easy to manipulate puzzles. She played with it before she was one-year-old and still plays with it as a two-year-old. I recommend all of these puzzles to everyone and frequently get them as gifts.

5 Stars Great Starter Puzzle
I really like this whole Chuncky line of Melissa & Doug puzzles. The age reccomendations says 2 years but I believe that is way too old. I got a few of them for my daughter for her fist birthday and she instantly loved them. The pieces have pictures underneath so that your baby can match the pictures. They are super durable and will stand up to years of play by multiple children. Only down side is that they won’t fit in any standard puzzle rack.

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 Great puzzle
We love Melissa and Doug products! Great quality. Daughter loves this puzzle. We match all the colors and then we make it silly and mix it all up. The pieces will all fit in the other sections. She loves sorting it and making it right, after “we get silly.”

5 Stars Definitely Helps Learn Colors!
My 2 year old twins got this a few months ago and now they know all 10 of these colors! This puzzle is great because although all the pieces fit into any color, my girls would put the wrong color in and say, “noooooooo” and then put the piece into the coordinating color. They adore this puzzle and get so proud of themselves!

4 Stars Fish Puzzle review
It is a good puzzle. My 3 year olds can easily use the puzzle and the pictures under the pieces help very much!

5 Stars Excellent for children with Autism or speech delays.
My duaghter loved this product. She was able to learn her colors from this product in record time. It also helped her develop good fine motor skills. It was also good for her to verbally say her colors. I would highly recommend this product to a friend.

5 Stars Really basic, terrific puzzle
My daughter has had this puzzle since she was 1 year old and has consistently played with it for 2 years. At first it was just about getting the fish to fit in properly, then it was about colors and now it is about getting creative with the colors. It’s great.

User Ratings and Reviews

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.

4 Stars Cute
This is a cute and simple puzzle. My two year old can easily put it together. Nice way to practice words of insects with him.

5 Stars Melissa and Doug Toys
I love these puzzles for my grandson. They are so easy for his little fingers to grab, they are colorful and have a nice texture. They are educational and age appropriate. I would highly recommend these puzzles.

5 Stars I bought this toy as a gift for my grandson, but haven’t given it to him yet.
I bought this toy for my grandson’s 2nd birthday next month, at the request of his mother , so I don’t know how he’ll like it, but I know that Melissa and Doug toys are highly rated for their durability and ease of use for little ones. I myself love how brightly the toys are colored, and the fact that they are made for little hands.

4 Stars Cute chunky puzzle
I love melissa and doug products. This product, like all of them is bright, durable, cute and educational. My two year old can’t get enough!

4 Stars cute, but a little disappointed
I was looking for this puzzle in particular for my little girl since it is the “girliest” one M&D have in the chunky puzzles. It is very cute and functional, but the sides and backs of the pieces are not painted like the other chunky puzzles I have. The particleboard is left raw and of course, goes straight into our 12-month olds mouth, so it is beginning to puff up in some spots. I expected better from Melissa and Doug as I have many of their other toys and love them. Otherwise, it’s a good puzzle, just like the other chunky puzzles my older son loved so much.
