A 2-Layer Flat Tray puzzle, part of the Who Comes from an Egg series. Snakes also lay eggs and this bright and colourful puzzle shows the eggs on top and the small green snakes emerging from their shells. This puzzle has interesting and varied shapes and the bright colours encourage children to participate in the very important task of doing puzzles. Puzzles not only help with their cognitive development but they also help and encourage interactive discussion. Part of our discovery series, this puzzle is interesting and informative.
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.
Puzzles with more than one layer are an exciting experience and also increase the task of sorting, which is an important skill in grasping mathematical concepts. Multi-layers also show what is beneath the surface or another view or what is inside which will increase a child’s learning experience. These puzzles are an extension of the flat tray puzzle teaching children all the basic skills they need. Development of skills such as visual motor, proprioception, vestibular, tactile and fine motor, all pre-reading and mathematical skills. These are essential for a child’s early childhood development.
