This bright and colourful bird from New Zealand is called a Takahe. This whole picture raised puzzle shows the bird in it's natural environment and the interesting shapes make it a challenge for the young puzzler as they learn about positive and negative spaces.
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.
