How to choose a wooden puzzle?
Although at first glance, choosing a wooden puzzle may seem simple and obvious, in reality there are some criteria to consider before making your choice.
1 | Choose the wooden puzzle according to the age of the child
It is, one could say, the number 1 criterion to be respected. To choose your puzzle, take into account the age of your child. If at one year old, your toddler will gladly have fun with a wooden interlocking puzzle or a puzzle in stacking cubes, at 3 years old, he will want to go up a gear and piece together drawings.
Each wooden puzzle normally indicates the minimum age required to complete it. Among the main wooden puzzles, you will find built-in (or built-in) puzzles for the little ones, cubic puzzles, tactile or sensory puzzles or even educational puzzles.
2 | Opt for a wooden puzzle adapted to the rhythm of the child
Even if age is important, we must not forget that each child evolves at his own pace and that it is essential to respect it. It is not because at 6 years old the child is supposed to know how to make a puzzle of x pieces that he will necessarily be able to do so. The purpose of the puzzle is to allow the child to have a good time, not to discourage him.
3 | Consider the interests of the child
Choosing a wooden puzzle is also choosing a theme. Some children are passionate about nature, others about geography. The choice must therefore be made according to his universe and his centers of interest. Disney princesses, cartoon characters, animals, numbers, alphabet… Wooden puzzles come in all shapes and sizes and there’s something for everyone.
4 | Find a wooden puzzle that fits your budget
It is true that wooden puzzles are often more expensive than cardboard models. But, it is possible to find a wooden puzzle that suits your budget. Remember that the wooden puzzle is much stronger than the cardboard puzzle, so much better suited to young children. In addition, their manufacturing process is respectful of the environment and the health of the little ones. Wooden puzzles are environmentally friendly and durable.
5 | Check puzzle format and piece sizes
When choosing your puzzle, don’t forget to take into account the size of the pieces. It is true that most of the time, wooden puzzles are made up of sufficiently large pieces since they are aimed primarily at young children. But, it is a point to which you must pay attention for the safety of the little ones. Finally, the format of the puzzle is also important. If, for example, the game has to be moved for one reason or another, it is preferable that it be easily transportable.
And you ? Which wooden puzzle did you choose for your child?
