Wooden Games & Puzzles for Kids

Young children like putting things together such as jigsaws and puzzles. It also helps their coordination skills and as they improve they can try harder puzzles and games. You can sit with your child and help them to put the puzzles together. Also spend time playing the games with your children as this encourages learning and means you have some quality time together. Wooden games and puzzles can stand up to years, even generations, of play.

Animal Dominos
- Matching the animals and playing the game with you or an older sibling encourages your child to recognize similar shapes and colors. While playing you can talk to him and tell him what each animal is called, which will also promote learning.
Hickory Dickory Clock
- Learning to tell the time is another skill that can be helped with wooden games. This clock helps your child learn the time and complements the nursery rhyme. The wooden blocks are removable and of different shapes, so she has to fit them in the right shape as well as learn the numbers and colors. Then the hands of the clock can be moved round to help her learn to tell time.
Personalized Wooden Puzzles
- You can buy puzzles with your child's name included so he can put it together and use it on his bedroom door or just keep it as a puzzle. This helps him learn how to read his name and is a colorful, enjoyable puzzle to complete. They can be bought with objects in them such as a train or numbers, clowns, vehicles or even a butterfly.
