In Association with Mindware

Triazzles Set of 3
Vivid sea life, irresistibly icky animals and glow-in-the-dark T-Rexes add to the educational appeal of these deceptively simple puzzles. Construct the jigsaw border, then just try to match up the triangular pieces! Choose from our cool collection or treat your family to a complete set. 15" wide. Ages 8 to adult

Squzzles
Parents' Choice Award
Right brains love the fantastic colors and dazzling imagery. Left brains just want to "figure it out." Arrange the Squzzle puzzle cards until all the objects match-it's tougher than it looks! Each pack of 3 puzzles features 3 different designs: check out our newest sets for nature lovers: Creepy Crawlers and Nocturnal Animals. Ages 6 to adult

In Association with Are You Game

Are You Game is the place to go when your child has gone beyond the simple puzzles offered by Genius Babies and is ready for some jigsaw puzzles. Here's a tip to find what you want: First click on the advanced search link. That will allow you to search for puzzles (and not games too!) It will also allow you to narrow your search to a particular age range (if your child is really good with puzzles, enter a higher age). Be sure to include an interest, too, if possible, like dinosaurs. Otherwise you can end up with over 100 results! You can also search by keyword, using "puzzle" plus the number of pieces you're looking for (puzzles 12 piece).

Parenting Tip: Some gifted kids love puzzles and are quite good at them -- starting very young. Don't be surprised if your gifted child works through the first level puzzles earlier than 12 months! They do enjoy those first level puzzles, such as the peg puzzle shown at the left; they just tend to start at younger age and move through the levels more quickly than non-gifted children. This means you should buy puzzles sooner than you think and keep them handy.
