Puzzles at Children’s World
At Children’s World, puzzles have always been a staple item. We’re proud to carry an exciting variety of adult and family puzzles from trusted brands like White Mountain, EuroGraphics, and Ravensburger, just to name a few. Whether you’re spending a quiet evening unwinding or gathering the family for a collaborative project, our puzzles are the perfect mix of fun and focus.
Of course, puzzles aren’t just for entertainment, they’re also powerful tools for learning and brain development. Working through a puzzle enhances problem-solving, memory, spatial reasoning, and concentration. For children, they encourage fine motor skills and perseverance, while for adults, they promote mindfulness and stress relief. Completing a puzzle gives a sense of accomplishment and can be a wonderful screen-free way to reconnect with family and friends.
We also offer a great selection for younger learners, from colorful starter puzzles for toddlers to educational themes like animals, geography, and space. These puzzles make learning interactive and exciting perfect for classrooms, rainy days, or quiet playtime at home.
Why would you teach Toddlers to Do Puzzles?
The beauty of play is that children teach themselves skills through trial and error. If your toddlers are exposed to all kinds of puzzles early on, they will naturally learn how to do them.
You can show how a piece fits or get them interested by playing with them, but rest assured that they will figure something out if they have enough exposure to it.
Starting them early will be the best foundation for being able to build multiple-piece puzzles later on in preschool.
The toddler/preschool stage of a child’s development is important as young brains grasp concepts that lay the foundations for future learning. Puzzles are a great way to help learn these skills through key cognitive lessons like visual perception and problem-solving solving while developing fine motor skills.
In general, 2-year-olds often start playing with simple peg puzzles, shape sorters, shape puzzles and basic 2 to 4-piece puzzles. At 3 years of age, children will often still be playing with simple shape sorters and peg puzzles but will start transitioning to multiple-piece puzzles, most commonly 9-piece puzzles and 12-piece puzzles. Some 3-year-olds can build puzzles of 24 pieces plus!
