Safari Animal Layer Puzzle Board (12pcs)
$89.95 $80.96 + GST
This multi-layer wooden puzzle provides a rich, hands-on opportunity for children to explore animals, their habitats and the fascinating similarities and differences between living things. Featuring 10 colourful wild animals, the puzzle supports early science learning by encouraging children to investigate animal characteristics, compare sizes and features, and discover how skeletons differ across species. These investigations can also be extended to discussions about the human body, promoting a deeper understanding of the natural world and biological diversity.
The chunky 15mm-thick animal pieces are double-sided and freestanding, allowing them to be used beyond the puzzle as props for imaginative play, storytelling and small-world experiences. Children can also stack the pieces vertically, developing hand-eye coordination, balance, concentration and problem-solving skills.
The puzzle’s layered design offers multiple learning opportunities. The base tray features engraved skeletons for matching with each animal, supporting observation, classification and critical thinking skills. A removable intermediate layer includes animal-shaped cut-outs, creating an additional matching challenge that encourages spatial awareness and visual discrimination.
Deeply engraved details on both the animals and skeletons provide a tactile sensory experience, inviting children to trace the lines with their fingers or create crayon rubbings to extend their learning through art. The animal pieces and shape tray can also be incorporated into sensory play experiences by filling the spaces with coloured rice, beads or other loose parts, encouraging creative exploration and fine motor development.
Ideal for supporting language development, scientific inquiry and imaginative play, this versatile puzzle encourages curiosity about animals and their environments while helping children build important cognitive, sensory and physical skills. Crafted from FSC-certified birch plywood, it is designed to withstand repeated use in early childhood learning environments.
