The first layer of  “Discover My Body” wooden Puzzle is the wooden jigsaw puzzle of a boy or a girl wearing their clothes.

Once you remove the first layer of wooden jigsaw puzzle, you will see the second layer. It tells us that our body is covered with skin. Skin enables us to feel things. We touch objects with our skin.  Skin comes in many different colors and we see people with different color of skin.

Beneath our skin comes muscles which are attached to the bones. Our body has more than 600. The muscles can stretch and shrink like rubber bands.  Therefore, we use our muscles to move our body, jump, run and even smile.

Our important organs inside the bones are: brain, heart, lung and stomach.

• Brain is the boss of our body and it is protected inside a very hard bone called skull. Our brain sends and receives messages from all parts of my body.
• Heart is like the engine of our body. It pumps blood to travel around my body through special tubes called veins and arteries. The blood is like energy for our body.
• We breathe oxygen from the air and send it to our lungs and our lungs push the used air back out.
• Stomach. We need food to grow and the food goes down to our stomach. Stomach will break and mash the food until it is soft.

Bones are meant to protect our body. The whole structure of bones is called a skeleton. Bones is the frame to hold our body and to protect softer organs inside. We have 206 bones and half of the bones are in our hands and feet.

Kids will have a great learning experience if they have objects that they can see and touch.  “Discover My Body” wooden jigsaw puzzle is one of the tool to learn about the facts of our body.  You can find Discover My Body – Boy and Discover My Body – Girl wooden jigsaw puzzles are available at Kidzpuzzle online store

Kidzpuzzle promoted puzzles during Early Education workshop at one private school in Kuala Lumpur, ISKL on Feb 6, 2010.  We displayed cardboard jigsaw puzzles and wooden puzzles during that day.  It was a good opportunity for Kidzpuzzle to introduce their range of wooden puzzles to pre school teachers of International School. Customers were happy with the special promotion offered on that day. To our surprise, cardboard art jigsaw puzzles for older children were also popular. We thanked Ms. Carolyn Curtis for the arrangement.

Let’s take a look at benefits of doing jigsaw puzzles:

Doing jigsaw puzzles develops several functions of the brain at once. Reasoning, deduction, analysis and logical thought are exercised in the completion of jigsaw puzzles, as well as physical hand-eye coordination, spatial awareness and visual perception. Jigsaw puzzles are also a fun problem to solve and kids can learn about persistence and strategy while working on the jigsaw puzzles.

Chunky Wooden Puzzles. Each wood puzzle piece is in real chunky size. The puzzle is designed for toddlers as a start to play with wooden puzzle. As young as age 2, toddlers can start play with the puzzle. They exercise their hand eye coordination to grab the chunky puzzle piece and they learn to recognize the shapes of each puzzle piece in order to match with the slots in the puzzle board. At Kidzpuzzle, we have different themes of chunky wooden puzzles so they learn different objects or animals according to the theme. The design of the puzzle picture is made as if it is a child’s drawing.

Peg Wooden Puzzles. Each wood puzzle piece has a plastic peg. It is recommended for children age 2+.  They will learn to grasp the peg by using their index finger and thumb. This exercise is to train the children’s fine motor skill for pre-writing skill. Children have to be able to hold a pencil using their index finger and thumb  before they learn to write.

Raised Wooden Puzzles. Each wood puzzle piece is in raised form. It is recommended for children age 2+ after they can manage the chunky and peg puzzles.

Magnetic Wooden Puzzles. It is wooden puzzle with a magnet fishing pole. The magnet fishing pole is used to lift up the puzzle piece. The puzzle is recommended for children age 3+.

Jigsaw Wooden Puzzles. The wooden puzzles are cut in jigsaw pieces.  Choose from 10, 12, 16, 25 or 48 piece of  jigsaw wooden puzzle.
