Being a parent is so much fun, but also a big responsibility! I often feel the pressure of being the source to point fingers at when my child misbehaves, lacks manners, or becomes disruptive. It is also exciting to be the person who beams when my child does something new and has learned a new ‘trick’, like being able to sing the ABC’s, pick out colors, and count! I am really enjoying investing my time and energy into these little humans, and helping them learn and grow into knowledgeable people!Â
I have been on the hunt for educational games and toys that will help me as teacher and help my son as a student to learn new things. I can’t exactly make flash cards or sit him down to a textbook just yet, but I can introduce games and puzzles that will stretch his mind and increase his knowledge. One such game is our new 4-in-a-box 123 puzzle from the Learning Journey.
This puzzle set is pretty fun, and has several built-in learning features. Just like the title, this set has four different puzzles in one box. The first puzzle that makes number 1 consists of two pieces. The second puzzle for the number 2 is a four-piece puzzle, the third puzzle for the number 3 is a six-piece puzzle, and the last puzzle that incorporates all the numbers is an eight-piece puzzle.
When we pulled out this puzzle for the first time, we didn’t realize that the numbers 2, 4, 6, and 8 were on the back of the pieces, and we were all a bit confused as to what the numbers meant, and why the number 2 was underneath all the pieces for the “1” puzzle, and why the number 4 was underneath all the pieces for the “2” puzzle. I think it is a confusing feature on the puzzle for very young children who are new to puzzles, but I can see how this can be developmentally appropriate as the child grows. As their capabilities increase, more features can be explained and talked about.
The puzzle pieces are nice and sturdy with vibrant color and no peeling edges, and just the right size for toddler hands.  The finished puzzles measure approximately 12.5in x 8.5in. This is a perfect ‘starter’ puzzle for little minds, and I’m glad it comes in a nice box that stores the pieces.
The Learning Journey has all sorts of fun games, puzzles, and electronics. Here are some I have my eye on:
So many fun educational toys and games!
