Puzzles with more than one layer have more than one objective. The many layers will increase the difficulty of the task and they allow children to understand more than one angle of the concept being taught. Children have difficulty with concepts that are not easy to see, showing them on different layers gives the concept has more clarity. The concept of layers builds on the child’s excitement of discovery, the hidden layers encouraging them to look deeper.

To “Look Inside” can be a very rewarding experience for a child. It can be used to show many concepts, such as “what is hidden beneath” or to help children to learn colours or correctly understand the difference of shapes. Look Inside can be used in early childhood for young puzzlers but it may also be used to extend the more advanced puzzler by putting new and exciting concepts into a concealed space. Puzzles with more than one layer fit into this category.
