Review on 🧩 Engaging Toddler Puzzles for Kids Age 2 to 4: Introducing QUOKKA by Jon Ford

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great idea but not realised.

I bought this puzzle set for my little granddaughter who is very interested in how the human body works. She asks what's in different body parts, and she liked seeing the muscles, skeletons, and other body parts (many of which she called "toast"!). However, there are some problems: 1) Strong odor. After unpacking and after more than a few days, this smell persists and is not very pleasant. My house is full of very sensitive noses and she smells like Ikea furniture. One of the cheapest end models, using multiple sheets of plywood (correct me if I'm wrong but you get the point) glued and compressed. It's not so much the wood as the glue! 2) Parts are VERY tight. Not all, but almost half of them were extremely difficult for adults to unseat from their seats. We even had to use scissors to push them hard and I can't imagine that being the norm for my granddaughter. She was very disappointed when she found out that she couldn't take out some details and needed adult help. All in all a fantastic idea and great illustrations but I have to return them as they don't serve their purpose. - Be a fun and functional puzzle game!
