Let’s Start Building Our Solar System
I don’t know about you, but when I was a kid I was obsessed with the solar system and when I got my first puzzle that laid out all the planets I couldn’t put the thing down for months. Mind you, this was a good many years ago and the detail of that puzzle was nothing compared to what you get now with this Melissa and Doug Solar system puzzle. AND, it’s a floor puzzle so it’s got big pieces and takes up a good bit of space.
In The Box
48 pieces is somewhat standard for this size of floor puzzle, which measures approximately 24 inches by 36 inches. The colors and detail of the solar system in this puzzle is very high resolution and gloss. Each planet is labeled, which makes for a great educational toy for your 3 – 5 year old. The jigsaw puzzle is easily cleaned, as we know how sticky and gooey our little one’s hands can get.
Fun For Hours
Younger children may lose focus before the 48th piece can be put together; of course really is different from child to child. When my oldest son first started putting puzzles together (he was about 12 months) he would lose interest after the 5 piece or so 
. Now he can sit down and have the patience to put a 48 piece puzzle together, and quite quickly too. The main thing is for you as a parent to be encouraging and help with the puzzle only if your child asks for it. This is a great self esteem builder.
