Learning about the world we live in is very important for young children. This Flat Tray wooden puzzle of the Map of Australia shows all the state borders and the sites of the capital cities. The States have been coloured different colours to emphasize the State outlines and make the borders more easily recognizable. This is a great teaching tool for any classroom or just for home.
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
