Wooden Layered Puzzle - Elephant



I like this set of puzzles the moment I saw it a couple of weeks ago at Tanglin Mall but I did not buy it because I was not sure if Sophie could understand how to play with it. Eventually I gave in and bought it for her. Sophie loves the puzzle although she still cannot arrange and fit the elephants correctly into their layers. Now I understand why such puzzles and toys are so super expensive. They are great because they engage the child without all the battery operated sound effects and lights. I also intend to use the elephants to do teach her colours, "size" words (big, bigger, biggest and small, smaller, smallest) and even sequencng based on size. Good toys ought to be like that... many uses and ways to play.
