SOLAR SYSTEM FLOOR PUZZLE

Ages 3+ years      48 pieces      Size: 36 x 24 inches

Explore outer space with this Melissa & Doug® 48-piece Solar System Floor Puzzle that forms a 3- x 2-foot scene when assembled. The puzzle shows each planet—plus Pluto—without printed labels on the puzzle. Gives kids a chance to learn planet names, positions and sizes by using an illustrated guide and multi-lingual insert to provide reference information that helps children match each planet in the scene.

As kids connect the large, wipe-clean pieces, they practice fine motor skills, spatial thinking and early science exploration. Designed for ages 3 and up, this puzzle offers a hands-on, screen-free way for kids to talk about space, sparking questions and building interest in the solar system.

This detailed puzzle is a wonderful addition to any collection of children's puzzles and is just right for birthday gifts, holiday gifts or special occasions. Melissa & Doug kids' puzzles are Montessori-inspired activities that foster spatial awareness and fine motor skills as they bring their imagination to life!
