Toys and Games Reviews of Melissa & Doug Shark 100 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle
Customer Review: VERY NICE PUZZLE
Summary: 4 Stars
My daughter is on a shark frenzy. Everything has to be a shark. One item that I bought her for Christmas is this puzzle by Melissa and Doug of a majestic (but, for me, paralyzingly terrifying) shark surrounded by some little sea life in what looks like a reef, all held, presumably, in an aquarium. It contains 100 pieces, so the pieces are large enough for fine motor coordination of an older elementary aged child. It is sufficiently diverse figure - ground so that children can perceptually analyze and assemble a gestalt. Other than than the scary shark (sharks and snakes do it to me :( ) I believe that this image is very attractive. As an adult, I'm not THE best puzzle assembler, but, this one provides some challenge. I believe that this puzzle provides educational values - visual problem solving, fine motor coordination, viewing the small problem while also maintaining sight on the whole, how to attack a problem (corners, edges ...), and then, of course, all of the diversity of species, how they interact in nature, and how we set up tanks for the mutual benefit of the selection of species. There are so many avenues of discussion for parents and children that this alone can become a half-day's event. Now, I bring the internet with me everywhere, so I'm better prepared for those difficult questions. I believe that the puzzle pieces are clearly cut out and they fit snuggly together. It seems to be produced by quality craftsmanship using quality materials. I believe that it is quite durable, although a puzzle and an energetic little girl can lead to a lost piece, usually in the middle of the puzzle! I recommend this puzzle for curators of marine institutes, children's museums, science museums, aquariums, libraries - both public and school, as well as home enthusiasts. For folks intrigued and not frightened by sharks, this is an excellent purchase. I give everything a grade, and this puzzle I believe is overall worth an "A-".
