Questions & Answers

Pluto appears to have been taken out of the equation?

"Just so you know," Bridenstine said at a FIRST robotics event in Colorado this week, "in my opinion, Pluto is a planet," and "you can write that the NASA administrator declared Pluto a planet once again." 23rd of August, 2019. I agree, and I'm afraid Melissa, I'm afraid I won't be able to purchase because you don't have Pluto.

I'm not sure why Lithium ion batteries are required for this puzzle. Are they part of the package? What exactly are their responsibilities?

That is completely incorrect. It's nothing more than a conundrum. There's no need for batteries. It's a great puzzle with good quality, no dust, and a lot of weight to it.

Is it possible that the planets are in the right order?

Yes, but it's from the Earth's moon, so it's a different perspective. My sons were successful in obtaining all of them.

Is there a label on the fish?

No, fish aren't labeled. Hello,br> Bendixen's Giftware / Judi / Bendixen's Giftware / Bendixen's Giftware / Bendixen's Giftware / Bend

Selected User Reviews For Melissa & Doug Underwater Ocean Floor Puzzle (48 pcs, 2 x 3 feet)

My 3-year-old Dino-obsessed son received this as a gift and was very pleased with both the customer service and the product
5/5

It's a fantastic crossword! When he inquired about the dinosaur names, I dialed the company's number. They were extremely helpful and sent me a dinosaur key email in response to my questions.

The kit is built to last, and the pieces are made of a thick material
5/5

Our child has Autism Spectrum Disorder and is extremely picky about his puzzles. He, on the other hand, adores his Melissa and Doug sets! They have enough pieces to hold his attention and are large enough to keep him engaged. The kit is well-made, with thick cardboard pieces.

It's really cool! In person, it appears to be even cooler
5/5

For our son's 4th birthday, we purchased this. He's entered the solar system and is in possession of all of the planets. I've memorized all of the dwarf planets. I'm glad the puzzle pieces are large because I was afraid I'd lose them. If your child is interested in planets, the Learning Resources inflatable planets and wall decals with planets, constellations, and rockets/space crafts might be of interest. Following this, I'm thinking about picking up some more floor puzzles.

Excellent quality, and an excellent next step up for younger children
5/5

My 3-year-old son was really enjoying the wooden Melissa and Doug puzzles with the wooden tray they sit in (not the ones where the animals are their own shapes and sit in a place only they fit in, but the ones that are more like actual puzzles), so we decided to give this a try. This one is a great step up from those, and it's under $10, so it's a steal. The pieces are definitely larger, but each one has enough detail that my child can figure out where they go with minimal assistance the first time, and despite receiving the puzzle only last night, he's already completed it twice, the second time nearly entirely by himself. It hits that sweet spot of not being too difficult to be off-putting, but challenging and easy enough with an interesting enough picture that he'll keep working on it. br>br>The quality is excellent - The pieces easily fit together if they're supposed to go together, but you can't force them together like you can with a smaller puzzle, reducing the amount of confusion for the young puzzler. We chose the dino one, and I chose it not only because of the dinos, but also because the color scheme is distinct enough that it's mostly obvious which pieces go with which dinos, though there are a variety of dinos and colors, so it's still a little challenging. I looked at a lot of dinosaur puzzles and this was one of the better ones in terms of picture and price.

This is one of the tougher ones
5/5

Our 3. Puzzles are a favorite pastime of my 5-year-old daughter. She's been good at them since she was a child, and she prefers these types of puzzles (for the floor or table) to the simpler puzzles that fit into wooden trays (though we have plenty of those as well). She'll line up three or more puzzles in a row on the living room floor, then display them for all to see. br>A few months ago, I decided to purchase a few new puzzles, including some 60-piece puzzles. To get her to work on smaller pieces and higher piece counts, she should do puzzles. (She has her sights set on a 100-year-old mansion. ) She's close to getting the piece she wants, but she's not quite there yet. )br>I had no intention of purchasing a 48-inch television set. Until I saw this one, I had no idea what a puzzle was. I ordered this for her because she has an interest in ocean life books and zoo exhibits. When it arrived, she was giddy with anticipation and eager to get started. br>It turns out that this is more difficult than some of Melissa and Doug's other 48-hour challenges. puzzles of various sizes and shapes There is less color variation, and some of the same coral patterns can be found in multiple locations. br>This is a positive development - With the large, sturdy pieces that are so easy for her to handle, the design poses a little more of a challenge. She does it once or twice a week, and she's getting better at it. I enjoy observing how her mind works as she tries to figure out how to put things together. br>Our next puzzle purchase will most likely be 60 pieces or larger, but I'm confident that this one will be kept in rotation. (Plus, our younger daughter has expressed an interest in "helping" with puzzles, so this one will eventually be useful to her as well. ).

It's a little more challenging, but it's still a fantastic game
5/5

We have a number of Melissa and Doug puzzles on the floor. My three-year-old loves to do puzzles! He's mastered all of his Daycare puzzles and is always on the lookout for new ones to complete (and they keep him quiet, entertained, and out of trouble while he's doing them-- What else is there to ask for? ) BUT, in some ways, this is the most difficult of the M puzzles. If your child is only mildly interested in puzzles or you're buying this as a gift, consider one of their other floor puzzles (the fish or the cartoonish animal). Because the image is similar to a colored-pencil drawing, I believe this will be more difficult. Because it's a pencil drawing, the lines aren't as defined, there's a lot going on, and the animals' shapes are obscured by the leaves, it's difficult to tell what they are. Even if your child is bored or has mastered the others, this one will be a challenge for him or her.

The puzzle is fantastic! My son has recently developed an interest in the solar system
5/5

For his fourth birthday, I gave him this puzzle, which he adores! The pieces are large enough for small hands to handle. It depicts all of the plants as well as other system components. This is an excellent teaching tool. It's best to stack the pieces in each of the box's four corners when putting it away. The box will not close if this is not done.

Excellent, extremely high-quality a good puzzle When my nephew was two years old, I bought this for him because he was fascinated by planets and enjoyed puzzles
5/5

He was able to put it together in a few days on his own, but he continued to enjoy it and would put it together (along with some of his other favorite puzzles) over and over again. It lasted a long time even after being used (and abused) by a toddler on a regular basis. The pieces are thick and sturdy, and they fit together well while also being easily separated. It's very well-designed all around. made. br>br>Weirdly, when my nephew was three years old, he lost interest in puzzles and refused to do them for about a year. But he's recently rekindled his interest in puzzles, returning to this one in particular, which appears to be his favorite: it's still in good shape, everything fits together perfectly, and only a couple of the pieces have minor bends despite extensive use.
