Toys and Games Reviews of Melissa & Doug World Map Wooden Jigsaw Puzzle
Customer Review: Solid Construction but Useless
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased this to help home-school our children. The idea was that younger children (6 and under) could become familiar with the shapes of the continents and oceans without doing any formal study of geography. I wanted a wooden puzzle that would also hold up under abuse by smaller children. But the pieces are completely out of line with the geography itself. The kids find the counter-intuitive shapes very frustrating. Heck... I find the shapes frustrating! Invariably, the kids give up after a minute or two, leaving me the chore of putting it back together, which takes some time even for an adult. I finally decided to get rid of the thing to save myself the headache. But my wife insisted I post a review first. In a nutshell, the lack of conformity between the continents and the puzzle pieces makes it useless from an educational view. Melissa and Doug ought to put their heads together and create a replacement for this product, one more in line with the wooden puzzle of the United states, from which my children do in fact learn while enjoying themselves.
