 Durable, learning tool Aug 18, 2007
By Nan B. Spier
Took this product to Africa to share with African teachers, who had never done a jigsaw puzzle - ever! They loved it! Different colors of countries on puzzle makes it very appealing. Pieces were tough and thick. None were tiny. Some were small and for age 5 and under, could be lost if not careful. But the joy on their faces made it all worth while.

learning the world Nov 06, 2007
By JEK teacher
These puzzles are great for getting your geography straight...helps get all those countries you've heard of and THOUGHT you knew where they were
in place. Because the puzzle pieces are cut along country lines you are much more aware of size, borders etc. My grandkids liked them; my son said, "We ought to put these together once a month;" and I enjoyed doing them too.

Excellent for all ages! Aug 20, 2008
By M. Hassell
I purchased this puzzle for my three and four year old daughters. When I first opened it I was a bit skeptical that they would be able to do it(it took me a bit to figure out). Once we did it together a couple of times, they now know where a majority of the pieces go and love putting it together! They are also able to name some of the larger countries.Not only are my daughters learning, but myself as well!! This is a great product and I plan on buying the rest of the collection as well.

Wonderful learning tool Mar 12, 2010
By Marisa Suarez-Stearns
This is a wonderful learning tool. Sadly, due to this puzzle and a globe I keep in his room, my 2 1/2 year old is more knowledgeable of African countries than I am. In a good way. Durable, brightly colored and fun to do (over and over), we come back to this puzzle quite a bit.

 The best available Sep 14, 2009
By Llael
This is great fun even if you're not a kid anymore! There are a couple small puzzle piece edges that fray quickly from being awkward shapes, but I feel they did the best they could without resorting to wood. Just as a forewarning, yes most pieces are shaped like countries, but very small countries are tacked on to larger ones, and awkward extensions of certain countries are separated. Thus if you use the puzzle as a memory aid, places like Malawi or Eritrea can be easily overlooked.
Unfortunately, so much more information could have been encoded in the puzzle by overlaying a physical map; learn deserts and mountain ranges rather than "Oh, Chad is that big red piece." Nonetheless, I give the product high marks because it's the best available currently.
