The Christmas Tree is a very large part of the holiday season in many cultures. This wooden raised puzzle will challenge any young puzzler as they need to understand both positive and negative spaces to achieve success. The topic is familiar and the bright and colourful imagery will encourage active participation in the task.
Raised Piece Puzzles are the next step after Pegs. The puzzle pieces are raised higher than the frame background which allows small fingers to easily manipulate the pieces. This extends fine motor development. Puzzles help children to develop a range of skills. These include visual motor skills, proprioception, vestibular, tactile and fine motor. These skills are all pre-reading essentials and are extremely important in early childhood development.
