The Grounded American Puzzle

My toddler loves this puzzle and does it at least every other day, sometimes multiple times a day. He is really excited to show us the states and talk about the pictures on them. I really like it too because not only has it helped him learn his states, but also can lead to conversations about other learning topics (for instance, we were learning about habitats and Nevada has a snake on it and Arizona has a cactus - it leads to us talking about "desert habitat" when those states come up.

My kids have had one of these puzzles for a couple years and it is holding up well considering. My kids have been VERY rough on it, so Tennessee is now broken and the pieces look pretty scuffed.

Bought this for my 6 year old daughter. We travel all over the world together but she hasnt really grasped the concept of the different states in america(she believes states are countries). When this arrived, I immediately opened it and she and I put it together within 3-45mins because we took our time with it. She was easily able to distinguish the difference between each state and where shes from and her family members. I loved this and so did she!

This is a quality item. It's not wood more of cardboard but thick cardboard. We have taken it apart and put it together several times and it seems to be holding up fine. You may want to measure it to make sure you have a table large enough or if you don't mind getting on the floor that works great too. I usually don't like the price of these products but this one was one of the more reasonably priced items and worth it for the fun and learning experience.

Purchased this for my 4 year old grand-daughter for her birthday (at my son's request)...She loves it and had a lot of putting it together with grandpa..The puzzle pieces were large & easy to assemble for little hands.We put the puzzle together on a table just because it was easier for us to get up from a chair rather than the floor...I would highly recommend this educational toy!!!
