The Emu is a large Australian land bird. The Australian Aboriginal people used the animals of the land for their food and therefore in their stories. Our puzzle of the Emu has 14 pieces, is a larger tray puzzle and therefore has larger pieces. Children will have no difficulty in holding the pieces in their hands as they improve their skills of fine motor and hand eye co-ordination. This Flat Tray wooden puzzle is a great next step puzzle after raised puzzles.
A Tray Puzzle gives people a framework to work within. They are the next step from raised puzzles as fine motor coordination is developing. Tray puzzles are designed in many different configurations with few or many pieces. They can be traditionally cut or randomly cut to the shape of the object. This encourages recognition of both positive and negative shapes. Puzzles help develop the skills of hand -eye coordination, fine motor skills, gross motor skills,problem solving, shape recognition, memory and very importantly setting goals and achieving them. A successful outcome of achievement should be considered most important when choosing the piece count
