Melissa & Doug Take-Along Magnetic Jigsaw Puzzles Travel Toy 2-Pack Farm, Vehicles

Got these for my 3 year old grandson and he loves them and being magnetic it’s easy to keep up with the pieces and easy enough for him to do with a bit of help.

My kids love these puzzles! They are great for traveling and restaurants. After we taught my 3 year old to store the pieces in his cup holder, he was able to work on them independently.

I bought these for a long plane trip. They actually ended up playing with them while waiting at the airport and I think we could easily have ended up losing some pieces if we had attempted it on the plane as the pieces are quite small. Owing to the magnets, this is not a light weight item and when weight matters (carrying a bag all day / suit case travel weight limits) that's a potential issue. Still, the value for money is good and they are a lot of fun. The search and find part once the puzzle is complete is also a nice feature of this activity.

I bought these to travel with... they are great. My almost-3-year-old loves them.

My 2.5 year old has been obsessed with puzzles lately. I bought these mainly to take to church as a quiet activity, but they are great in the go puzzles. And work for in the car. They are a little heavy because of them being magnetic, but the plus is that the pieces stick to the whole thing and not just the main assembly spot. But that means they can set them on their lap and not need a table or floor.I have two boys old enough for them, and so I like that this was a set of two, and that each one has two puzzles in it. My only big issue with them is that they both have the same symbols on the back of them. So for both the vehicle and animal puzzles, they use the circle and triangle symbol to distinguish between the puzzles specific to that set. So if you were to mix up all the pieces from the two sets, you would have to sort through them to have all the circle pieces from the vehicle puzzle and the circle pieces from the animal one separate. Not a deal breaker, but wish they had different symbols for each of the four puzzles.

The media could not be loaded.  This magnetic puzzle set is great for toddlers and young children who are learning to piece together jigsaw puzzles. It’s magnetic backing and folding book style carrying style makes it easy and convenient to store and travel with while on the go. The bundle comes with two packs of jigsaw puzzle sets, an animal themed pack and vehicle/transportation themed pack, and each pack contains two 15 piece magnetic jigsaw puzzles along with a “seek/find” activity accompanying each puzzle which is ideal for more kids at a higher skill level. Altogether, 4 puzzles and 4 activities. My toddler isn’t quite 3 and hasn’t quite gotten the hang of the smaller puzzle pieces but is very interested in it. It’s great for when we are in the car or at a restaurant to occupy her attention without resorting to any screen/tablet devices. If you’re looking for a non-electronic gift for a child around 3 to 5 who enjoys puzzles this is fantastic! You can’t go wrong with this brand either and I highly recommend for kids.

This product may be the best available of it's kind (i.e. a travel-friendly puzzle), but there are enough little issues that I'm not comfortable giving it 4 stars. As you can see in the attached image, - My child has managed to damage the pieces with very little use. I'm not exactly sure what he did to it, but wear and tear seems like a relevant concern for a travel-friendly product. - The puzzle doesn't really fill the provided space. If you place two corners and try to finish an edge, you have to figure out how to "slide" several magnetized pieces across the page to get them positioned correctly. Odd because the puzzle has a little (pictured) hole in the corner to help you get them out.When you first pull the pieces out of the puzzle, you're encouraged to stick them to the opposite page. In theory, this is great because the pieces are never really loose. Unfortunately, the opposite page is very busy so it's not very friendly to seeing the shape and pattern of those pieces.Despite my concerns, this still may be worth the money as travel-friendly entertainment isn't necessarily plentiful. The package comes with with two "books" that each hold two puzzles (top and bottom). The magnets work. The pieces fit together.

There's 2 magnetic puzzles one on each side in each book makes 4 total puzzles. The puzzle pieces do bend slightly when taking out so need to be gentle with this when putting back in it's magnetic and securely fits together. It's thin and can easily be carried around to slipped into my purse for on the go. The colors is vibrant and the look and find is a nice touch. My almost 3 year old loves puzzles and the hunt and find book, so this is great combo! I own a couple of the other sets and we are enjoying these. She loves puzzles but these are taking some skill and we are teaching her how to do smaller puzzles pieces.
