Wouldn’t it be great to find a puzzle that stands up to abuse, and engages the thinking caps of our little ones? (Wouldn’t it be nice, too, if it kept them busy long enough for us to write a post or use the bathroom?)
One letter puzzle we are having tons of fun with is the wooden Doug and Melissa Upper and Lower Case Alphabet puzzle.
It’s definitely sturdy, and it’s great for learning both the upper case and lower case letters.
The pictures under the letters are colorful and fun. Most, are easy to identify with the common letter sound. Though it does use the Xylophone for X (something I wish wasn’t so often used in alphabet pictures). And the upper case W picture was kind of hard to figure out. We are saying wagon. Is that right?? Am I missing something?
Anyway, what can be better than having your little ones learn their letters and sounds…without them even knowing they’re learning?!
Happy sigh…

I love almost ALL Melissa and Doug products. They're good in content and quality.
What a neat puzzle! Glad your kids are having fun with it!
Cool puzzle! We have the uppercase only version but I hadn't seen the upper and lowercase one before!
My son loves puzzles and he is learning his alphabet! I really need to get him one of these!
