More than a puzzle

Assembling puzzles is incredibly fun, but this simple activity also offers your child a range of benefits: it develops hand-eye coordination, perceptiveness, logical thinking and spatial imagination, not to mention expands your child’s knowledge and vocabulary. At Banana Panda, we know that a puzzle is just the starting point for a world of fun. Discover our new series Puzzle +, which proves that a puzzle … is more than just a puzzle! Here are 3 new educational collections, each of which offers your child a little something extra!

Banana Panda Puzzle + Home for ages 2+, 3+

This large, beautifully illustrated puzzle depicts the interior of a house. The puzzle consists of 24 pieces, but each of the four rooms (a kitchen, living room, bathroom and child’s bedroom) can be assembled separately. This is a great feature for younger children who are ready to take on puzzles of increasing difficulty step by step. And that’s not all! The set also includes 32 add-on tiles that can be assembled to hone your child’s perceptiveness and reflexes. You can also use this puzzle as the starting point for a game in which each room is a separate playing board with 8 pieces. Start with all the pieces face down and then take turns flipping them over to complete your room. This puzzle set also features a guide full of other creative ways to play with your child. These extras make Banana Panda Puzzle + Home a great gift for children ages 2+, 3+, and the entire family.

Banana Panda Puzzle + Garden for ages 3+, 4+

Banana Panda Puzzle + Garden has 40 pieces, making it an excellent educational present for older children (ages 3+, 4+). This large puzzle depicts a flourishing garden and orchard. Discover the vegetables, fruits and flowers growing within it, developing perceptiveness as you expand the completed puzzle with 32 add-on tiles featuring vibrantly colored illustrations. Use a timer and try to assemble it as fast as possible, or take turns assembling it—this set is a great way to play together. The poster that comes with this set offers a lush collection of gardening trivia. Learn about crops and your favorite foods, or find the inspiration to start your own garden, even if in a single pot.

Banana Panda Puzzle + Transport for ages 4+

This is another puzzle in the series created for older learners. Banana Panda Puzzle + Transport is designed for children of ages 4+ and up (that’s why the box does not offer a suggested age). With 60 pieces, this puzzle introduces your child to the world of vehicles that transport people and goods by land, water and air and can be easily divided into four larger zones for a wide range of additional games involving the 32 add-on tiles. The set also includes a poster featuring even more information about transportation. Are you ready to join in the fun?
