This jumbo search-and-find puzzle offers an extra activity when completed! The Beneath the Waves floor puzzle features 48 pieces that assemble to reveal a stunning underwater scene filled with animals to spot and count. The puzzle measures over four feet long when it's assembled, and the 48 extra-thick cardboard pieces feature an easy-to-clean surface to keep it looking like new. A visual picture list is printed right on the puzzle, encouraging kids to do counting games and picture-search activities with no reading required. Playing with this puzzle is a great way for kids to explore the hidden world under the ocean while developing their cognitive, physical, and emotional skills. When children work on puzzles, they are fine-tuning their gross motor skills, improving their hand-eye coordination, strengthening their problem-solving skills, and beginning to develop logic and critical thinking processes. This Melissa & Doug puzzle makes an exceptional gift for preschoolers and kids ages four and older for hands-on, screen-free play. This product is certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

We’ve had this puzzle a week and my five kids (ages 2-11) have all enjoyed putting it together multiple times. The seek and find feature adds to the fun! The pieces are thick and sturdy and this seems to be a better option for us than a wooden puzzle.

Very engaging for the kiddos. There are 2 activities to do after you put it together. Count and find the sea animals. This puzzle is worth the money

My children love putting this together and taking it apart. Perfect for beginners or even children a little bit older.

I bought this for my granddaughter who just turned 4 and she loves it! The size is big so you do need some room to do it but that was one of the reasons I bought it. The picture is beautiful and it seems to be of good quality. I would definitely buy again!

Sent this as a gift to a family with kids from newborn to 11. Now, it's too easy for an 11 year old but they like the size and it's a fun puzzle to play with the younger ones. Ideal age is 4 to 7. The pieces are sized for easy cleanup and younger ones can still help find animals in the picture and be guided to put pieces in place. Durable so this will last and get pulled out to be redone over and over as the kitchen ds grow.

I got my two kids several puzzles to take on vacation for a quiet time activity at night. This was their favorite. The puzzle is well-made and large, four feet long. The sea creatures were beautifully colored and realistic, not cartoonish like so many kids puzzles. Once the puzzle is put together, there is a seek and find activity - find the four eels, the six crabs, etc. In addition to that activity, the kids had a separate, unrelated, set of bath toys that were sea creatures (rubbery flexible things that changed color in the warm bath water). The kids enjoyed matching the bath toys to the creatures in the puzzle too.I will definitely look for similar style puzzle with different scenes - the quality is great and the kids loved it.

My two-year-old loooves puzzles and she's able to complete this one with a bit of help. The look-and-find is another way to get more out of this puzzle, and there are a lot of good details and colours in the artwork. We've found the Melissa & Doug puzzles to be more durable than many others.
