Melissa & Doug Wooden Hide & Seek Activity Board – Montessori Busy Board with Hinges, Doors & 9 Wooden Magnetic Puzzles, Educational Preschool Learning Toy for Toddlers & Kids Ages 3+

I bought this for my oldest son years ago and we ended up losing about half of the pieces so I ended up buying a replacement because it is such a nice puzzle. The quality is outstanding as it’s thick wood with beautiful colors and metal hinges for the doors. Inside each door is a magnet that corresponds to the painting on the door and is a great thinking game for your kids to think out which magnet goes with which door. I don’t think it’s very difficult as my 4 year old can figure everything out pretty easily. My kids love playing with it and it’s a puzzle that really stood the test of time because we still have the old puzzle and it’s in great condition years later. The only reason why another was needed was for the replacement magnets. I highly suggest.

Melissa and Doug strikes again! My little one loves the magnets and latches on this little board! It’s not a huge size like a puzzle but still large enough to have lots of fun with. I toss this in my diaper bag and the kids play with it everywhere! Wood is nice a sturdy and nothing has broken on it despite how many time my kids have dropped this out of their stroller or thrown it while outside. Great for fine motor skills and definitely keeps a kid busy!

This is a very sturdy, attractive, and easy to use puzzle. It keeps him busy opening the doors and putting the matching animal in and out of the doors. He loves “hiding” the objects. The size is perfect for him to carry.

Good puzzle for what goes together!

Perfect for 9+ months and even more so for 12-14 month olds. I highly recommend this for any baby that is interested in opening and closing doors or cause and effect. It is adorable to see how play has evolved from playing with just opening and closing the doors to now picking up the magnets and moving them around. Highly recommend.

We first used this puzzle in my daughter's occupational theory to help her fine motor skills/dexterity. She really liked it so we bought one for home. Our daughter is now very fast at opening all the doors, can take the magnets out, and likes to name the pieces inside (e.g., "treasure," "nom nom," "woof woof"). I could see it maybe getting boring for some kids who find it too easy of an activity (and my daughter isn't interested in it all the time), but if you are looking to help your child with fine motor skills, it can be useful.

My one year old grandson is with me nine hours a day. He has blossomed into "new" experiences. These little doors took two days for him to figure out how to open, the opening is small and takes a moment to figure out. The doors overlap because of the small spaces when opened so he is learning cause and effect and problem solving. The magnets can be difficult to get out, but it is teaching him patience and perseverence. He has his favorite figures and walks them about my home. We have just begun putting them on the refigerator and learning to clean up by returning them to their homes in the puzzle. Great quality as usual with Melissa and Doug.

One of my child’s favorite puzzles!!! Nicely made and I love that the pieces are magnetic so when she flips the puzzle the pieces don’t fall out!
