Do the puzzle pieces fit inside the wrong shapes?

No, our puzzle is designed with Control of Error so that only the correct shape fits in the corresponding base. This provides your child with instant feedback so they can reocgnize, correct and learn independently.

Is this an appropriate first puzzle to introduce to a child?

Yes! This wooden puzzle was specifically designed as an introductory puzzle for infants and helps develop a number of early cognitive functions.

How are the little knobs on the tops of the puzzle pieces used?

The puzzles pieces in this set are intentionally chunky for an easy grip. Once your child is ready to begin exercising the pincer grasp, the little knobs serve as an alternative way to hold the puzzle pieces.

What would be an appropriate next puzzle for toddlers or older kids?

After the Single Shape Puzzles, we recommend graduating to the Montessori & Me 2-Piece Safari Animal Puzzles.

How large are these puzzles?

Each of the three included puzzles is 3" by 3".

Baby's First Puzzle

Baby's First Puzzle

Consisting of a circle, triangle and square, this set helps your child develop a number of critical early-age cognitive functions such as shape recognition and sorting, spatial awareness and problem-solving.

Promote Early Movements

Promote Early Movements

Our single shape puzzles are fun for babies to twist and turn the puzzle pieces as they fit them into their respective bases. In doing so, babies quickly improve their hand-eye coordination as well as gross and fine motor skills.

Easy Handling

Easy Handling

Craftily designed with the child in mind, the Montessori & Me single shape puzzles feature petite knob handles on big, chunky puzzle pieces. This allows your baby to start with easily grabbing the puzzle pieces and then transitioning to exercising their pincer grasp on the knob handles once they are ready!

Getting Started

Getting Started

Start with just the circle puzzle. Slowly demonstrate removing and inserting the puzzle piece from the base. As your child gains mastery, introduce the square and triangle shapes to increase the level of challenge. Reinforce shape recognition with a mystery bag! Separate the shape puzzle pieces from their bases. Put the shape puzzle pieces into an opaque bag. Invite your child to select one of the base pieces and then without looking, reach into the bag to identify its matching puzzle piece using only the sense of touch.
