What is a self-correcting puzzle?

Self correcting means that the pieces can only fit with correct matching picture. For example the puzzle piece A only fits with the puzzle piece Apple, Z only fits with the puzzle piece Zebra... They can not be interconnected with other pieces. This is great for very young children just starting to learn letter sounds, because it encourages their cognitive skills.

What picture is for the letter g, x, w? thanks!

I purchased this for my grand kids who live in another state. We spent hours playing with this over the Christmas holidays, but the only picture I can remember is x and that is x-ray.

This has several horrible reviews dating back 3+ years.have these issues been addressed? splinters and incorrect/missing letters?

I bought this for my two year old who already says his alphabets and I am teaching letter and object recognition. It has been great so far and this is actually the first item he reaches for when I tell him it is puzzle time. No issues so far with splinters and the letters and pictures are colorful and clear. Happy toddler, happy mom.

Why does it say ages 4 and up? Is this still appropriate for a 3 plus year old?

I got this for my 3 year old and he played with it . He needed guidance as he played with it though now that he is 4 he plays with it on his own .

Educational! Great for kids

These are solid! Really educational and easy to use. Bought the letters and the numbers. My only thing is that some pieces came lifting up (the image or number/letter that’s glued on to the board) and some of the puzzles are loose and separate too easily. The case is easily accessible and can fit in luggage for travel. I just wish it could close properly or latch so the pieces can’t easily fall out and get lost. Great value though.

Great Travel Toy and Learning Fun!

My kid absolutely loves this wooden alphabet puzzle! I got it specifically for an air travel, and it kept my toddler busy for quite some time. It’s sturdy, colorful, and a great way to keep little hands and minds engaged. Plus, it’s been helping with letter recognition in such a fun, hands-on way. Definitely a great buy for travel or just everyday playtime!

Missing a letter.

This is great for my 3 year old. He finds it very engaging. Unfortunately my puzzle came with 2 E’s and no J. I tried to work with Amazon customer support to resolve but their virtual assistance wasn’t helpful for this situation.
