Melissa & Doug Peek-Through Puzzle - Animals

Discover a whole new way to puzzle!

Clever tile-shaped pieces are simple squares on the outside, but die-cut on the inside so the patterned puzzle board shows through. Place the tiles in the puzzle board to match each animal to its pattern and solve the puzzle!

Children love finding the solution to complete all nine animals "correctly" — then mixing up the tiles to see a bee with polka dots, an alligator with feathers, or a turtle with tiger stripes.

The sturdy wooden pieces are easy to grasp and maneuver, so moving them into the right (or wrong!) locations is an enjoyable challenge. The puzzle comes with lots of extended-play ideas, too--so as kids fill the figures with colors and patterns, they'll also be filling their playtimes with enrichment, learning, and lots of pattern fun.
