How to use

Unpack the puzzle and spread the pieces on a flat surface in a single layer so colours and edges are visible. Begin by finding and assembling edge pieces to form the border, then sort interior pieces by prominent colours or shapes to simplify matching. Supervise younger children and offer guidance with hand-over-hand assistance if needed. Store pieces in a resealable bag or box to keep them together between uses.

Usage recommendations

Use the puzzle on a stable table or floor area with good lighting. Encourage children to verbalise colours and shapes while assembling to reinforce language and cognitive skills. For mixed-age groups, adapt the task by limiting the number of pieces available or by timing short assembly rounds to maintain engagement.
