The Stegosaurus is a favorite amongst Dinosaurs. This colourful image with it's raised pieces to help with piece manipulation will encourage children to do this puzzle over and over again. A whole picture image, the pieces are cut into the shape of the imagery which is a harder concept to master than the traditionally cut puzzle.
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.
