Healthy eating is an important part of early childhood education. This puzzle is a raised tray puzzle with lots of vegetables. The pieces are cut into the shapes of the vegetables and the pieces are raised to help with piece manipulation.
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.
